The reason you're being downvoted isn't that you're "biting the hand that feeds", but rather that you're being both pedantic and inaccurate.

Pedantic because your point on the name certainly didn't deserve the belaboring you gave it.

And inaccurate because, well, you're just wrong. The people being called "Super Angels" today are the same people that invested more money than your average angel, and in more startups than your average angel. For example: Ron Conway, Mike Maples, Aydin, Steve Anderson, Dave McClure, etc.

They were all pretty much considered to be in a different class before, but ever since some started investing others' money, they've now earned a new name.
