It is useful to allow panpsychism to be itself, and something like but not true panspchism to be another thing - just as it would be useful to let consciousness be itself, and to let something like but not true consciousness to be another thing.
I would suggest, again, that with respect to your view of panpsychism not being true panpsychism, it is because you have included a large amount of emergentist content - some of which makes contradictory claims to true panpsychism.
Just as you can assume that when I'm discussing illusionism, I am discussing true illusionism, not illusionism where a trick produces the genuine article. A realist/illusionist synthesis.
We don't have to argue about everything.
