Well yeah, people can call things whatever they want! Ultimately, I'm
talking about the laryngeal mechanics, cuz that's easiest to quantify.

It seems to me that most high Rossini tenors are using what you call
adducted falsetto in their upper ranges and really good at going back
and forth from their heavy mechanism, because their vocal folds are
thin and short. I can do the tenor thing and go up and up, just like
that as well, and it's not obvious to me where I am switching, though
I of course am, because there's no way I can sing a high Eb any other
way. My counter-tenor voice is that upper register, but just taken
further down into my range (like a lyric soprano, I think you'd
agree). Women, especially dramatic voices do the switcheroo all the
time too.
