I know that isn't the right term but you can't change thousands of hairloss people's minds. They're going to continue to use that term.

Futile effort.

People use the word "temples" to describe the "corner spots" of the frontal hair because there is no other word that easily describes what the person is talking about.

:agree: To me temples and temple points are 2 completly different things.
Temple points are as you pointed out the point of the hair on the side of the head closest to the eyebrow, whilst the temples are the corners of the hairline.
I think thats how most people see it.
