There's a lot of nitpicking around this topic. Mainly because "a chain of blocks" only describes the Merkle Tree part of "blockchain technologies".

I'd personally argue that "blockchain" is a bad way to describe immutable, decentralized ledgers, because it inherently leaves out some of the defining aspects.

However, the term has been way too established for a long time now, so the whole discussion is moot.
