Or, since “realistic contemporary” fiction was mainstream for pretty much all of the past century, “mainstream 80’s fiction.” Mainstream fic that is not realistic contemporary is rare enough to need its own label.

No, that's too similar to "just fiction" and "regular fiction", and that just drives me up the wall. Plus, you just know somebody's going to misinterpret that, willfully or not.
