It's the easiest bracket to put them into. You could easily replace that with Film Soundtracks as a lot of post rock uses the same deconstructionial soundscapes prevalent on many soundtracks. I personally cannot stand the term 'Post Rock' and would much prefer to use something like 'Ambient Rock' but the tag has already stuck!
