I believe one of the sail lofts gave the name "blooper" to a cruising spinnaker 
as well.  That would be basically an asymmetrical spinnaker that's only about 
165% overlap instead of the 180% width for a symmetric.
Don't exactly know how they figure the size to replace the symmetric on an 
older boat.
Guess it depends more on handicapping committees than anything else.
