AT4 is not technically a rocket launcher, despite its appearance

It's a piss poor example when you try to say someone wouldnt wouldn't be able pull up a RPG when searching for rocket launchers when an RPG is a rocket launcher.
I wholeheartedly disagree with implying recoilless rifles to rocket launchers because not all recoilless guns are shoulder-mounted and not going to fit what people assume to be a rocket launcher. Not to mention with rocket_launcher being an umbrella tag for all "projectile launchers" Grenade Launchers would have to be aliased too.

The point was that if someone decided to be even more specific and split regular cilindrical rockets and rocket-propelled grenades then stuff like that past (and anything tagged rpg-7 would stop showing on rocket launcher launcher searches, stop being disingenuous, and you know damn well that "projectile launchers" in this context was referring to de recoilless gun vs rocket launcher debate at hand, I don't know why you are bringing grenade launchers to the discussion unless you are being intentionally obtuse or disingenuous.

It's not being disingenuous. Rocket_launcher is defined by the wiki as "A weapon that fires a rocket-propelled projectile at a target." Its for that reason why an AT4 doesnt apply but RPG, regardless of the warhead, and a Javelin apply. I bring up Grenade launchers because they fire an explosive projectile just like the Anti-Armor weaponry. Projectile launcher would be too ambigious.
