Default Diamond Cut - Terminology Clarification

I have a question about what constitutes "diamond cut" versus "miscut". I've two different kinds of things that people refer to as "diamond cut".

1 - Cards that are square (90 degree corners) with the image tilted. These seem like the sheet got crooked before it got cut.

2 - Cards that are NOT square (more of a parallelogram). For these, it seems like a vertical/horizontal cut was made THEN the sheet got crooked before the other direction was cut. The corner angles are not 90 degrees on these.

I've seen both and have seen both referred to as "diamond cut". Is that how everyone else uses the term?

I usually reserve "miscut" for a cut dramatically pushes the image in one direction or another, often to the point that a part of another card shows.
