"Report as abusive"

I have had occasion a few times over the years to report a post, usually because it was either obviously a bot, possibly a bot or probably spam. None of these things really feels like "abusive" is the right word and I wonder if the report button could do with being updated so that, as on many similar forums and sites, you can be more specific about why you're reporting the post. This would help the moderator to prioritise responses. Or, if the number of reported posts is low enough not to need prioritising, perhaps just renaming it "report post as against the rules" or similar would be better than "abusive", so that people aren't put off from reporting posts that break the rules but which aren't, strictly, abusive.
