I would argue the opposite, that speculative fiction was created as a term because sci-fi's as generally understood didn't quite fit everything people were putting out, and that science fiction is a type of speculative fiction. for instance, your definition would exclude alternative history, and there is plenty of alt history which is clearly science fiction...and some which like Handmaid's Tale isn't really about encountering change, which I think science fiction requires. speculative fiction encompasses the distinction.

strictly speaking it just doesn't make sense to term anything "set in the future" as science fiction lol, like i think you mean a future where society is materially different. it is however, the quality of material difference I think matters.

but again, genre to me is about themes and concepts, not strictly character or setting.
