If you are going to do that, you should first change the definition of
Prog-Rock the echo is based on away from one that defines MUSIC and
instead one that defines ARTISTS.

Again, I have to submit that the Beach Boys songs "Good Vibrations"
and "Heroes and Villians" fit the definition of Prog-Rock, though none
of their other works do. Now, does that fact that only two compositions
out of a band's catalog of hundreds of works fit the definition fo
Prog-Rock mean that those two isolated works must be excluded by the
Prog-Rock police? Does the fact that Genesis has recorded a few songs
that don't fit the Prog-Rock defnition mean that all their works that do
fit should then be excluded?
