Why wouldn't FizzBuzz refer explicitly to the challenge that shares its name?

I said “FizzBuzz-level.” I’ve used actual FizzBuzz for new grads who I suspected couldn’t code, but normally I’m using questions that require looping, conditional logic, perhaps the use of a simple helper data structure like a map. I consider “reverse a string” to be advanced FizzBuzz. Anything requiring DFS or binary search is not FizzBuzz. “Print a tic tac toe board using asterisks, one character at a time” is FizzBuzz.
