There are probably some that thought the XJ was not deserving of the Cherokee nameplate when it first appeared...
The Cherokee badge over the years has been stuck on the SJ, XJ, KJ, KK and KL - most of them have been vastly different from all the others. Jeep probably don’t do the badge any favours by lurching from one design language to another... I honestly think it’s pretty hard to nail down what a “true” Cherokee is!

I know what you’re saying though - the XJ is an icon and absolutely a classic vehicle.
