Yeah, Phil named his key format after the one used by the mechanism that PGP
was diamtrically opposed to (PEM).  How about doing some checking instead of
just inventing things to support your argument?

>Why are not calling it "PKIX certificate" to avoid confusion?

Because it isn't?  At most it's an "X.509 certificate", but "certificate"
pretty much implies that anyway.
