Troubling story and some questions

Actually, the term is absolutely correct and not a stupid choice at all.
In class E airspace there is IFR traffic on an IFR clearance. So that
airspace *is* controlled. For IFR traffic, anyway.
The AIRSPACE is not controlled there or anywhere else (outside of
certain restricted areas where the control can be, shall we say, very
positive). The TRAFFIC is controlled.
