I'm the opposite side of the same coin: if I like it, I don't consider it country music.
Lots of stuff without twang I'd just call folk music (add other terms if needed, American, western etc).
Also I'm glad the same thing didn't happen to rock. Like there is a certain mostly-post-grunge vocal style popular in the 2000s that'd be really annoying if it was part of most rock music.
Folk, blue grass, fast grass. All amazing and technically country...but not to me
