A sickle is not a scythe. Do they think no-one will notice the mistake if they call Maka a 'sickle specialist'?

Well its not that big of a "WTF". The scythe came after the Sickle and was basically designed after the sickle as more of an upgrade that would be more useful for farming. As such Sickles were used in combat before sycthes were and so calling someone a sickle specialist/sickle combantent or whatever. Many variations of sickles were envented for combat/farming purposes as time went on. For example sickle swords and scythes. So since they are in most respects they same typoe of tool its not that unheard of to call someone who weilds a sickle/scythe or any other type of variation a sickle specialist.
I don't find it any weirder than someone "mistakingly" calling a hatchet and axe.
