Most "simulation" games aren't simulators

I was just browsing the Google Play Store and I am getting frustrated seeing games being tagged with the genre, but aren't actually simulating anything. E.g. Idle Miner/Mining Tycoon (can't remember name). Nothing in the game is accurate or even tries to represent real life. It even has cartoon graphics. Now I'm not getting mad about the games themselves, just the fact that they are being labelled as sims. Anyone else annoyed by this?

Also, most albums tagged with shoegaze on Bandcamp are not shoegaze. It's a travesty.

Give me your top 5 shoe gaze albums, for calibration, and also because I love recommendations.

The shoegaze like emo music? like those emo kids in South Park that just look at the floor and kind of not dance?
