I can't say I've ever heard of Clutch being referred to as "beardcore".

To add on to your post, discussions about metal would be far more confusing if sub genres didn't exist. Especially when getting into a discussion about death metal or black metal.

amusing post title

OP, rest assured it's not just metal that has OCD people flipping out over categorization.

Simply choose a word from each column.

Column 2: Thrash, Sludge, Hard, Soft, Blackened, Doom, Avant Garde, Pop, No Wave, Synth, Indie, Tribal, Traditional, Garage, Acoustic, Noise, 'n'

Column 3: Punk, Metal, Rock, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Rap, Ska, Bass, Reggae, Core, Emo, Screamo

Everything serves a function. And there's always something to be outdone in a lot of these genres you're mentioning. I don't really have a feeling on electronica, but Metal, Jazz, & Punk have a sense of elitism attached to them on a stronger, more consistent basis than say Blues, Rock, or Country.

For example you tend not to get a lot of "Oh thats not real [genre]" in most of the latter genres I listed. Bluegrass is, inexplicably, starting to become elitist as well, and you're starting to see things like Nugrass, Newgrass, and Chambergrass pop-up.

I'm not intending to pick on Metal, but that was the topic given to us.
