Sadly, you totally miss the point, and I doubt I can explain it to you. I understand the point you're trying to make, but the first mass market use for the FM mode was broadcast radio. Every one had the letters FM emblazoned on the front. Using today's nomenclature, it should have said WFM. Advancing technology realised the problem of description. In the 80s, comms FM was F3E - now we have much more tightly defined terminology for what we consider to be the same thing.
My point was that WFM and NFM do signify something - or maybe point towards the need for prodding a button? FM, without any first character is a generic term and not a specific guide to deviation level.
I suspect we're both being a bit pedantic about something we both know quite well, but describe differently?
