If the RV was not a revision of the AV, then to what does the term "revised" in the RV refer to, if anything?

It was not a revision of the AV, and not a revision of the AV's underlying Greek, for it went far beyond revising the Greek, to the point of actually replacing it with a grossly inferior textform. It might more aptly have been called the SV -- Supplanting Version. If one looks at the Jehovah's Witnesses' Interlinear Gr/Eng NT, one can see they use the Greek text underlying the RV, which is the very Westcott and Hort Greek Text. And they prefer it with good reason.
