Obviously the farther one gets beyond a certain year or group of years, the easier it is to categorize it into a discrete grouping. So maybe we won't know what was after the Bronze Age until 20 years from now when it will be more obvious to most people and a general consensus will be reached.
I agree that the 1950s always seemed a little early for the Silver Age to begin, but I can accept that. For some reason though, it always seemed like 20cent Marvels were more Bronze Age books than Sivler Age. Iron Man #1 seems more Bronze Age'ish than Silver Age to me.
It does seem like a good end to the Bronze Age would be 1980, but then you have books like the Claremont/Byrne X-Men which spill over into the 1980s and seem like they should belong in the Bronze Age. But 1985 seems like going way too far to end the Bronze Age.
I agree that the 1980s, 1990s, etc are currently the best designation for those "eras". Getting into "copper", "chrome" etc seems a little silly, and "Atom" Age isn't metallic, so no reason to stick to that style of naming.
what is a CURATOR COPY ?
in Silver Age Comic Books

wow, I had this same question but didn't think to ask it here. But I'm glad someone else did and now I know.
