Totally agree ...

Whilst it may be customary and preferable to design Class A for lowest distortion, that may not be, and in fact mostly won't be half supply voltage.

A designer may chose slightly different operating points for Class A for many different reasons but meet all the criteria of Class A conduction. If such circuits cannot be described as Class A then what what Class do they fall into?

Science and Engineering doesn't allow for huge areas of ambiguity. I was taught that conduction determined the Classes, not linearity or any other arbitrary, non concise parameter.
