Is this community ok with confusing fantasy and science fiction? I thought it was a snob librarian's thing.
I know some stories mix both, but I don't think ASOIAF has anything to do with sf.
And I couldn't figure out why a certain pirate streaming platform does this. I choose scifi category, and it's filled with fantasy and anime.... Your comment might be a clue as to who's behind the platform. A ring of radical outlaw librarians!
Sci-fi and fantasy are traditionally considered a lower form of fiction/literature which is why the sometimes get lumped together.
