Canon Sue's are definitely a thing, where a character is just too perfect at everything and their flaws aren't actually flaws, but at the same time I get the frustration because the term Sue is thrown so willy-nilly at female characters that I tend to ignore that word entirely these days.

For me it's just another word, in a long line of words, that have lost all meaning in fandom because people keep misapplying it.

yeah, this. I mean, OP has a point that "sue" is thrown haphazardly at every protagonist by people who don't understand the definition of the term, but far far far more common are flawless overpowered protagonists with zero flaws and, regardless of gender or even species, are actually deserving of the label and the baggage that comes with it.
