"most people" is likely geographically influenced. I'm guessing you're in the US.
In the UK and Ireland, where the dish originated, "most people" would tell you it's a Shepherd's pie because shepherds herd she(e)p, not cows.

I'm an American, and I too know the difference between cottage and Shepherd's pie. Some people never leave their small towns and assume their experience and limited knowledge is universal.
I'm in Ireland and 90% of the time I've had shepherd's pie it has been beef
Weird, I keep reading your comment and yet the fact that 330,000,000 > 67,000,000 doesn't seem to be changing.
You might want to account for the number of people in respective countries that have a concept of what shepherds pie actually is.
There's 1+ billion Mandarin speakers that will tell you they live in
Zhōngguó
, compared to those 330 million that say they live inChina
