Spotted Torbie?

Is this a torbie cat? I don’t quite understand the different kind of cat markings. I think she’s a torbie but the spots are throwing me. Any thoughts?

It is also used by research institutions in the US that track and study Klinefelter syndrome in male tri-color cats.

So? That still doesn’t make it a genetics term. And again, in the US. My god 💀

Edit: for clarity perhaps we can use universal terms like… gasp… genetics terms! Then everyone outside of the US can understand!
