Anytime we get closer to the truth we all win. It probably wouldn't hurt if fewer folks felt they could only prevail at the expense of others, but I digress and that is well addressed on rmr as you note.
I personally witnessed TRA use strong arm tactics to take over existing clubs and make them "Prefectures". Any good propaganda and insurgency campaign needs some special language and terms to differentiate it along the edges. BTW TRA didn't coin the term experimental. They swiped it from California Rocketry magazine and is more properly attributable to several members of RRI. We used to say, "experimental rocketry just for kicks!" (link pp12-13) , to show there was a sport aspect as well as development and science aspects. The term can be found in an Ace Rockets ad . . .

Let's just say that TRA adopted the title and expanded its reach beyond California. I'm sure the term was used way before RRI. The Chinese probably had a word that would translate 800 years ago.
