Yes, but people will argue tricams are still active

Why not just call "active" vs "passive ", cams and nuts? It's more inline with "EN" "standards", since they don't use active and passive terminology. 

Why not? If the definitions of the active and passive pieces is so controversial, just drop them. 

Why not?

I am still learning John!

Someday I will disappear from here. That will mean I am doing it, rather than talking about it.

Yes but is it active or passive trolling?

I believe due to the reactionary nature and pot stirring, it is active. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
