"a virtual avatar generated using computer graphics"
So... an avatar. Let's all agree not to use this stupid "VTuber" term.

“Vtuber” refers to the the virtual persona but also the real person behind the avatar, cf. “Youtuber”, “blogger”. And “avatar” is a much less specific and less informative term than “vtuber”.
And
anyway the street finds its own names for things.

Yeah, no. We will continue calling it VTuber whether you like it or not. You're also wrong.

Except you haven't managed to show how. So... continue pushing ignorant blather.
