So if Exclaim's genre-specific lists are eligible, then why not Allmusic's? Just curious, that's all.

Because Exclaim! doesn't do an overall EOY list, while AllMusic does. There was one year in which Exclaim! did compile an overall top 50, mixing and matching from their genre lists, but they haven't returned to that idea.
