My point in the last email was simply that the bodies that set up web-related standards call URLs URIs. I'm not telling someone that they should call it a vehicle instead of a car. I'm telling them that when they go to look for car dealerships in the phone book, they should look under Automobile Dealers because that's what the people that make the phone book call them.
