Would I be correct in assuming that "Yin" and "Yang" as used in Yin & Yang Manipulation, Yin Generation, Yang Generation, and other articles sharing the common thread of having "Yin" and/or "Yang" in their names are not limited to the Taoist concept that those two words come from? That is, they're just useful designations for any dualistic set of opposite/complementary forces, regardless of their actual names?

I ask because some examples listed under the articles of such powers don't involve the actual yin-yang but rather another duality of similar nature (i.e. simultaneously opposed yet complementary), such as Ichigo Kurosaki and the Visored from Bleach (Yin & Yang Unification: they possess the powers and natures of both Hollow & Shinigami, which are normally incompatible to the point of guaranteed fatality for any attempt at Hollow-Shinigami hybridization that doesn't involve the miraculous power of the Hougyoku).
