Now the converse, where atheism is taken to mean rejection of all

You keep using the term "rejection". If by "rejection" you mean
"failure to credence" that's OK. But you seem to imply "assertion
of non-existence". An atheist may be asserting the non-existence of
the God of Catholicism, while merely failing to believe in the god
of deism; and in fact that is explicitly what Vic Stenger and
Richard Dawkins have said.
Then they are no more atheists in the sense of the atheists I have
problem with.
I use atheists in the (Google) sense of B~g. ~Bg is agnosticism (in
the mundane common sense).
Some atheists seem to oscillate between the two definitions,
opportunistically.
Anyway, as I said (on FOAR), I define theology of the machine M by the
truth about the machine M/ The proper theology is defined by the truth
which is unprovable by the machine, yet conceivable by it.
