Bushing/Bush - A sleeve or tubular insert, whose purpose is to reduce the dimension(s) of an existing hole. A protective liner that cushions noise, friction, or movement such as a rod end or spherical bearing.
Sure it does because it is a specific kind of bushing. Just like a spherical bearing is a specific kind of bushing.

Just because they are defined differently does not mean that they aren't both suspension bushings.
