... but actually cheese. I think all the derisory remarks about the 'substitutes' are conceptually correct in that all this unfermented, artificially flavoured, etc. stuff, even if tasty, just isn't cheese as such. However, I think that cashew cheeses actually are cheeses. Someone might still consider this kind of cheese a substitute for another kind of cheese, but I don't think they're substitutes (of another kind) for cheese as such.
I think extending the concept of cheese to the analogues is stretching it too far, but including nut cheeses to me is a valid way of extending it.
