Possibly misleading description of the "interference" tag

I just solved this cute puzzle
https://adjva4.dpdns.org/training/2WXPz

You effectively stop both rooks from defending back rank. To me, this is classic interference, so I added the tag. However, when I hover my mouse over the tag, it says "Moving a piece between two opponent pieces..." and this is not the case here. But I still think this is interference, only I'm moving my bishop between the rook and the c8 square.

According to the official "Puzzle Themes" study, "interference puts something in the way of a defender, blocking the defence". I like this one better, although they also only show an example of disconnecting two pieces.

This is true, it's just a bit hard to put all the info into the tooltip. I mean, something like https://chesstempo.com/tactical-motifs#Interference this. Both the study and the tooltip tries to be simple to digest but, yeah they do sacerfice some nuance while doing so.

I think perhaps the thing to do, is ensureing topics like this is covred in https://adjva4.dpdns.org/practice
