Didn't Intel use what it called "daugherboards" on some of its line of

Am I remembering correctly?
And, could it be that SOME use of the word "motherboard" was originated to
differentiate from "daughterboard", rather than intended to be a
stand-alone term?
Those who hold that a "motherboard" had substantially more on it than a
"backplane" should look at the "Godbout Motherboard Instructions"
