But again, and you’re saying it yourself, it’s because she was his wife, he wouldn’t have killed a woman colleague or his sister and there’s a term for that, it’s just not as well known.

But killing a woman with gender as an underlying factor does not mean you’re going to go around killing every woman.
This is about what factors constitute the motivation for the crime, not necessarily an obsessed serial killer.
For instance, many murders are racislly motivated - but it doesn’t mean the killer was killing every black person that crossed their path. A famous case in the US had a guy kill a black man, in front of his family, over a misunderstanding and confrontation - he killed the guy because of the confrontation but he only got to the point of killing because he was black, if this were a white person, we would have de-escalated the situation.
