It’s a direct/express bus, not BRT. Needs dedicated right of way to be BRT

Yeah, it's BRT-light, it doesn't have some elements required for full 'BRT' designation like pre-paying fares and shit too.

level boarding, branding, improved shelters, transit signal priority, only high-ridership stops, etc.

again, there's a lot more that probably could be done (all-door boarding, prepay) but I think you can call it BRT-light without too much pain
