Good point, but you're arguably up against the blur that existed at the time between techno and house. If it was 1988 and you listened to Members of the House or Final Cut for the first time you'd be quite likely - very likely, I'd imagine - to have classed it as house and not techno music. How that supports my point, however, I honestly don't know...
