Pointless sub genres

TO MAKE THINGS CLEAR: I mean the name of the genre, the distinction of it being different music. Not the music itself, usually it just fits another genre already.

I love finding info about genres, but there's many sub genres that are just pointless and probably shouldn't even exist. Or ones that just go way too specific. Bands should still be able to have a different sound, or lyrical themes or have different lifestyles in the same genre. You know, sub genres that just make things more and more confusing. What are some you know of?

Here's one to get us started:
Bandana thrash. Can't we just also call it Thrashcore or Powerviolence? Why Bandana Thrash? Because they prefer to wear a type of headgear? What? Do we really need yet another name for sped up hardcore punk?
