Or we could just say High on Fire is what hard rock sounds like 20 years after Motorhead, Metallica, Black Sabbath (etc.) have become radio mainstays.

Based on this logic we could also umbrella thrash, death and black metal as well, as they all have a similiar tone and tempo. But if we did this we would lose the identify and differences between the three genres!!! the same logic also applies to sludge, stoner and doom.
I agree that High on Fire could be described as an amalgamation of the bands that you`ve listed and for this reason we could just call them heavy metal and nothing else.
