In fact, one could agree with you. The problem is that RMC name has
already been reserved, maybe even patented :-)

But the original question was:
What's the right nickname for the method of structure solution from powders,
which instead of analyzing electron (nuclear) density shuffles atoms or
molecules around a cell and compares experimental and calculated patterns ?
That's what we do with RMC in practice. We use RMC to create models and then
compare with experimental patterns.

RMC covers only a part of the "Direct space methods", not for example methods
using evolution algorithms.

This all sounds like Reverse MonteCarlo (RMC) modelling. We have used this with
PDF analysis.
