People, especially "historians" love to brand a person as Liberal to dismiss his/her contemporaries as ignorant, backwards etc. The other example besides Catherine is the Great Friedrich of Prussia, nowadays people like to call him gay even though there's no proof of him being a homosexual. This is to paint the Austrian and French monarch as the enemies of freedom.
