Well, we agree...
I didn't mention metal foil because I don't have any experience with them.
Resistors are like any other passive: despite what we call them they are all multi-pole, temperature (actually radiation in general), Vib. frequency and level sensitive networks.
But that makes their names ackward so we cut corners and just refer to them by their hopefully dominant characteristic, the item that we WISH was their only feature!
Actually once in a while you can cash-in on more than one like using WW power resistors as Q reduced RF chokes. But not very often...
