In accordance to Eratas, I could imagine people in that universe going "What is that IS?" at the Minerva even though it isn't one.

I figured I was straying off my intended plot which is why I sank the previous Athena. In a sense, I did lie during the pre-rewrite and it went nowhere, hence the sinking. I knew there was no way I'd redeem that part of the damage which is why I decided to remake the plot down to how I exactly want it to be.

IMO, from a meta POV, an IS is labeled as such if it:
- Can be digitally-constructed.
- Has massive weapons.
- Has a damn powerful shield.
- Can go to space without the need for the pilot to wear a space suit.
- etc etc.

Nevermind the Core part, because no one's going take any random unit apart upon sight before calling it out as an IS. If that rule is observed, then yes, calling out the Minerva and it's incarnations IS copies is quite understandable, as much of a dismay it would be.

Now I see why Zero once remarked "People don't pay attention to tech."
