Yes, I am guilty of sloppy use of terminology: "reliability researchers"

Is "researchers with an interest in reliability" sufficiently vague?
The cynic in me prefers "researchers claiming to have an interest in reliability",
since so many of them are only really interested in getting papers
published.
