It may be semantics, but semantics can be important. As I posted previously, I don't disagree with you that it is similar behavior to fully automatic. The comment about "rapid fire semi auto" (or however I worded it) was more to do with the technical implementation of it than the usage.
Having said that, I don't believe these should be illegal or regulated. All that does is prevent law abiding people from possessing them. There has never been a law in existence that stopped a criminal from doing bad things. Even in the beginning when there was only one law (do not eat of the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil), it still got violated.
