Fighters are what Riot call bruisers. The community has always called them that and Riot felt they needed to be fancy and called ADCs Marksmen and bruisers Fighters.

And no, you can't simplify roles like that. Amumu is a tank, yet he doesn't really want to peel as opposed to initiate. Compare that with Mundo, which can't initiate but is really good at peeling.

Swain is a mage and his job is to go ham and deal damage in the middle of the enemy team, then Zhonya and kill some more.

Supports play nothing like each other, say Janna and Leona. And I guess you meant gold for the ADC, which they actually are supposed to protect, not only to have him or her be the only one getting gold.

Also, Zed or Master Yi are both assassins yet they can and should splitpush at late game since they are less useful in teamfights than other characters. If they get to fight someone, yes, they assassinate them, but that is a side effect of splitpushing (someone comes to stop you, they get killed).
