This should not be a lesson in language and to be so pedantic regarding a

It isn't, it is a lesson in terminology. It is impossible to
*have* something that doesn't exist i. e. "trojan virus".

The sad thing is that it is entirely possible a reputable AV
scanner has labeled a detected malware as such.

...and trying to get everyone to use correct terminology
is a lesson in futility. :o)
