So is something sold as a "safety limit switch" still a limit switch?

These advertise pull-reset instead of momentary functionality.
Way out of my area of expertise here, but I wanted to make sure that "momentary" was not part of the definition of limit switch.
I also think teams could design their own latching mechanism for a momentary limit switch with a little aluminum and surgical tubing.
