Interesting point Kickboy... To my mind more one of semantics than practical application.

When 'stealing' there is always a risk of being caught (called)...

... There are many situations in which (mathematically speaking) your cards make no difference (since the sum of your fold equity + winning chances with your '2-cards' are sufficient)....

... There are also many situations in which the sum of your fold equity + winning chances with '2-cards' are not good enough on their own, yet moving your cards winning chances above a certain point = a positive equity move.

You would rather your opponent folded his hand for sure - since you may be -EV when called... but the sum of these chances works.... for me this is a steal as much as any other.

Great point though - maybe we should call it a 'semi-bluff resteal' or just a 'semi-resteal'!
