Okay for these two categories, but you have to admit that the True Neutral category and the Amoral category are made for the characters who are not really evil (or at least not intentionally) but are still villains nonetheless.

As illogical as it sounds, a character doesn't have to be truly evil to be a villain, this wiki also contains plenty of non-evil characters such as machines who are only programmed to do what they do (e.g. Terminator (800 Series, Model 101)), non-evil brainwashed characters (e.g. William Dunbar), characters with a different morality than ours (e.g. Ryuk) or even heroes antagonists (e.g. Ellen Yin).

Even if a character is neutral, if he antagonizes the protagonist (especially if he wants to kill him for his own interest, like if he wants to eat him) then he is a villain by proxy (this wiki even has a category for this kind of villains : Villains by Proxy). You can consider him as a "Designated Villain", but he's still a villain, at least in-story.
