Agreed.
All kris from Moro ethnic groups are Moro kris for ethnical reason, but not all Moro kris are the same. Agreed?
To me and my limited knowledge, a definition based on ethnic groups with a common cultural background (including religion) does make more sense than a geographical definition when the geographical region is known to be culturally more diverse than the Moro ethnic groups. I'm open to discuss this and change my mind though.
Are you sure all ethnic groups on Mindanao have the same definition what constitutes a kris? So, what's this definition?
Why? Coastal areas of northern Borneo were part of the Sulu sultanate for quite a long time and there are still Tausug being citizens of Sabah today.

let's not go into the issue on sabah. People of sulawesi were also called moros.
in the philippines, borneo was not part of the moro province in 1900, yet the people there were called moros.
