Although I agree, I don't think anybody calls themselves Stygians and only one creed describes itself as Henotheist to which I get the impression they've adopted a derogatory word as a badge of pride.
Also I'd say that very few henotheists in Safelster worship darkness deities and most of them think darkness deities are bad. Hence calling them Stygians or referring to the Dark Empire is a surefire way to get up their nose. Henotheists is also objectionable to a lesser degree.
