I think that's why often genocide is used for the former and ethnic cleansing for the latter, which makes some form of sense since, as you said, there appears to be a difference.
I'm not trying to lessen the evil of what either is because I don't believe in 'which is more evil' contests, just that, for categorization purposes, maybe that is needed.
