> The term HTML5 is essentially a buzzword

HTML5 is just the common name of the living standard. It's clear, unambiguous, and what everybody uses. It is not a "buzzword".

I tracked down the Git history where the phrase "essentially a buzzword" was introduced in this pull request:

https://github.com/mdn/content/pull/5116/files#diff-7cfca62e...

I agree that it's unnecessarily dismissive.
