Do they bother calling them "eclipses" or "transits?" Like we don't say Mercury or Venus eclipse the sun.
NASA seems to call them eclipses, as well as several other Space Agencies that should be recognized as authorities here, I can only assume that is due to the fact that Phobos and Deimos orbit Mars, and Mercury and Venus don't orbit Earth.
