Single-targeting is pretty misleading I know. I guess that every ability that was considered aoe was described as multi-targeting before (as I saw in the 1st ability details template), thus the rest, those abilities that require a target to use, were naturally named single-targeted. And auto-targeted (or self-proximity targeted, how they were named back then) were considered skillshots (as I found in the skillshot page history).

I talked with Shaw Fujikawa to rename it manual-targeting to prevent confusion but realized ground-targeted were also 'manual aimed' so to exclude it, we decide to rename it unit-targeting.

Also automatic targeting can also be misleading, as the user doesn't go through a process of choosing targets, the AI does that.
