You are wrong.

Now why do you see the need to defend the term “restoration,” and seem so upset that I should associate it with Joseph Smith, which historically speaking, is a well known connection?

Then is my indication not true? You are not Catholic?

I didn't really have to defend it, the thread thesis already did that. That association is vaporous, to say the least. Churches were using that term in its true meaning way before Joseph Smith used it - it is opponents of the groups that used the term in a derogatory way and associated it in a false sense. A shameful action, IMHO.
