"Reissue" or "reproductions?"

I hate to "hijack" this thread but I've been uncomfortable with the "reissue" label for a while. Mullard isn't making these valves - as best I know Mullard doesn't make any valve these days - so these can't be a "reissue" but only a "reproduction." Perhap if we were to start changing the terminology on this board we could correct the impression that the manufacturer's marketing department is trying to hoodwink us with. Since Volkswagon make the new "beetle" despite it being a reworked Golf they could use the term "reissue" (which I've never heard them do so.) But EH/Sovwrek/whoever isn't Mullard, nor is Gravy Tubes GE, etc., etc.
