It's semantics.

But yes. Backdooring is similar to something Tryndamere or Mundo can do. Which is pop out of the jungle tear down a tower and then disappear. You have no warning, and unless you have teleport or just happen to be in the area you are pretty helpless against it and it annoying as all hell.

Taking advantage of your minions pushing is not really backdooring. You have ample opportunity to intercept that minion wave. Granted, you may not be able to take Yi on 1 for 1, and if more than 1 of you go to deal with it there is a danger that the rest of Yi's team can tear down a tower because they now are 4 vs less.

Both are completely legitimate. In both cases your team should outnumber theirs in a straight team fight. So if there is a backdoor or single player push going on than you know you have the numbers on your side in front of you. If the 4 players are hugging their tower, then either you need to dive (with a tank) or spread out and cover some ground.

Keep in mind your team gains absolutely nothing by dancing around just outside of their tower range for 2 minutes waiting for someone to initiate. Get the fight on, or go kill something else.
