Style doesn't make for a genre of game, though, that's more mechanics. Like how E33 is turn based RPG that's the defining factor of the type of RPG, calling it JRPG has no relation to what the game is fundamentally other than creating a category that a demographic is sought after.
By style I meant mechanics/gameplay loop, not visual style/art direction (in that case, E33 doesn't follow the usual JRPG visual design), its gameplay design is very JRPG.
"Turn-based RPG" would encompass a much broader range of different things, like Baldur's Gate 3/CRPG turn-based is usually much different from Expedition 33/JRPG turn-based, which is much different from traditional roguelike turn-based, etc.
damn that bot 69'd you, lool, but you just explained what the type of game they are without the use of saying JRPG, that's exactly why it's a redundant term that's more about catering to a group than about anything fundamental. I am struggling to be convinced.
