Sorry to be pedantic, but it really bugs me when I see someone I consider smart mix them up.

It was very common to hear people refer to s-video as SVHS in the early days because that's the format that it was essentially created for in the marketplace. If you knew what s-video was in the 1980s, chances are it was because you had or knew aobut SVHS decks.

I think it just persisted and it doesn't bother me at all.
