ioo then that makes them functionally useless to have two terms, and it means there’s no way to get specific about whether something is a need to get off, or just something you just enjoy when being kinky.
You’re not wrong, and I agree that there’s value in distinguishing between those ideas. I’ve just been around a lot of kinky people who insist there’s no difference in the words, so maybe there’s a language shift going on.

Fetishes and kinks are different things.
That greatly depends on who you ask. There are plenty of kinksters who make no distinction between those terms.
