Cyberpunk is considered a sub genre of sci-fi because a bunch of people got together and said that's what it is. Doesn't make it a 100% hard set rule. You just like putting things in boxes. A piece of creative work is what it contains, not whatever categories you shove it into.
I accept that the intersubjective framework of literary genres exists, but have my disagreements with it. You can do that. It doesn't make you wrong, just unpopular.
Suck my peanits.
