A little research.
In British Columbia: number of beers defined or called Kolsch: about 5 times more than Altbier.
Of which, with adjuncts: no Altbier, more than half of the Kolsch (it makes more sense to add strawberry to a fake kolsch than to an altbier).
These are rarely brewed as real kolsch, but the German sounding name is sexy for beers, and once you add fruit or spices it wouldn’t be kolsch in any case:
Just an example of common style abuse, justifying the overrule by the admins.
For the record, most of them are listed as fruit or spice beers.
