Yes, that is not what the AIM suggests, but it is more informative than "Experimental" 12345. "Why?" You might ask. Well, for example, I built two experimental aircraft - a 232 mph Lancair and a 110 mph "heavy" ultralight. They didn't require the same ATC treatment so why would I use the meaningless term "experimental" to describe both aircraft? Perhaps the suggestion was created when "experimental" aircraft were wood and fabric, powered by a lawn mower engine, etc. It's different now.
