Apple Crisp

I just happened to have 10 granny smith to clear off - usually the odd 1 or 2 will go into my pork rib soup.  But 10?  

I was thinking of apple crumble or apple muffin but I came across this recipe - Apple Crisp.  As I read I thought it is not unlike Apple Crumble, a popular dessert in UK.  So what's really in the name?  I looked up the internet and, ta-da, Huff Post has the full details:

• A crumble is a baked dish of fresh fruit (apples, berries, plums, etc.) that is topped with an oat-based streusel.
• A crisp is exactly like a crumble, except there are no oats in the streusel. That makes the crisp topping more like sweet, buttery, crumbled pie crust.

But since this recipe contains oat, shouldn't it be called Crumble?
