Is there any reason why these two are seperated? I can understand non-latex stockings/thigh highs being separate because stockings are pretty distinct from thigh high socks but in the case of latex it's the exact same material.

legwear in general is a whole thing

this is just another consequence of the whole mess

"but art styles can render the legwear in a way that's impossible to distinguish."

I think it should still be twys but using context as well. There's still a big difference between stockings and thigh highs.
