asking for posterity's sake: are saphe and vesbian synonyms?

if going by the original definition, they seem to be. both appear to mean “being a lesbian but in a nonbinary / genderqueer / etc. way.” the only main difference i can see is that vesbian was made to fit in with terms like gai and strayt, as an equivalent for lesbians. but like, that’s mostly just semantics and has nothing to do with any kind of actual different experience between the two. i don’t really feel entirely comfortable saying “my term and someone else’s term are synonyms!” without the other coiner also having a say on it, though. i’m also slightly confused on the fact that their term does seem to come from “sapphic,” but only describes it as being for lesbians. but you’d have to ask them about that for more clarity, not me!
