I'm kind of uncomfortable with this for the same reason, and it applies more generally. In particular, [[Category:Statutory rapists]] sounds more accusatory than [[Category:People convicted of statutory rape]], which, to my ears at least, sounds more neutral and matter-of-fact. Of course in non-controversial situations the plain term is fine ([[Category:Physicists]]), but in potentially controversial categories I'd prefer we word things a bit more carefully.
Consider, for example, this case: -- [[Category:Traitors]] -- [[Category:People convicted of treason]]
I think in almost all cases the 2nd is preferable.
