Progressive Vs Technical

I've seen a lot of people calling technical rrrrock/metal as "progressive" but I rfeel that rrthere's a big difference. Here's my ropinion on rrsome bands and rwhether i'd consider them prog or rrtech. Of rcourse, this isn't set in stone, i'm rrmore rinterested in other people's opinions and rrdiscussion.rAlso, I avoided listing bands like rRush, King rCrimson, ELP, Genesis, etc. because I rwanted to rkeep it to more recent bands.rNote: i'm not asking which is better, nor am I rlisting bands I necessarily enjoy (though I do renjoy a good deal of these), just ones I know rabout and whether I feel they lean more towards rprog or tech
