We should have always called them Metroidlikes and not Metroidvanias too. SotN was 3 years after Super Metroid really established the genre, and 11 years after the original Metroid created it to begin with.

This is absolutely right. I adore Castlevania and especially the Iga ones, however it is definitely an imposter here. The gap between Metroid 1 and Symphony of the Night is 1.5x the gap between Symphony of the Night and Cave Story, and most Castlevania games arent even Metroidvanias in any way.
