Yes. And? Much like "good" and "bad", there need be no consensus for such terms to still be valid. My beef is not with those who find little or no value in using it in a subject search. My beef is with those who seem to take deep offense any time someone describe a books as being "literary." As if it's being used as some sort of slap to the face.
