Fair enough. That is a blonde enough color to be considered gold. Especially in contrast to the cupboard cured sample.
But honestly the color I have in mind is very specific. But you have a point. What gold is really gold? And who decides that?
The pic I posted of Banana is pretty gold, so is yours. Though two very different hues. The gold of actual examples I've seen in pictures of Acapulco Gold though is a very bright color. More yellow than gold really. Most of what is called "gold" today (your example and mine) is really more an olive hue than what would be called a bright yellow.
