Mutants, mutation resembles disease, like a virus, corona is an example, whenever we heard about its mutation we were all afraid, apart from the various monsters and creatures that appear in books and films, often portrayed as the result of some radiation or genetic mutation. So yes, terms like "awakened" or "metahumans" are much better at describing human beings with powers in general, whether they are carriers of the x gene, or carriers of the Kry gene or others.
