Default Pu-erh an Oolong?

The FAQ recently posted has this as its Oolong list:

> Oolong:
> Ti Kuan Yin [Tai Guanyin] (Mainland China)
> Formosa Oolong (Taiwan, many varieties)
> Pu-erh (China)


I don't get why Pu-erh is in there. Isn't Pu-erh
oxidized much more extensively even than black
teas? Shouldn't it either be listed as a style of
black, or in its own category?
