It isn't more generic than its the same IDE but with presets and plugins loaded already. Thats the point, sorry if that was unclear.
I mean IDEA has Java-specific stuff just like PyCharm has Python-specific stuff. As far as I understand, IDEA is just regarded as the default "catch-all" JetBrains IDE because it's the oldest and most well-known, and probably most closely linked to the IntelliJ platform which spawned from it in the first place.
