Maybe "critical strike" is not mechanical term, but more of a contextual one ? Like "if I take this blow, I'm out and my party needs an urgent action from me".

Could be. I'm not sure what games have defenders roll where a 10 is a questionable result. Such games exist.

But I think it's more likely the title was written by someone who's heard dnd terms and doesn't really play the game. It's got a "how do you do, fellow kids" feeling.
