Dilemma for this architectural pattern[edit]

I'm unhappy with the separation between design pattern and architecture pattern for the broker pattern. From my perspective is the Broker pattern too big to be considered a design pattern, e.g. I would say that I'm using an observer design pattern to fulfill the broker pattern. But everywhere, as soon as we talk about the publish / subscribe pattern, we see directly "it is implemented through the broker pattern". I find this reductive in many ways. Broker has a Many to One To Many relationship where the Publish / Subscribe pattern has a Many to Many relationship. Where the "One" can fulfill some expectation, in the Many to Many, every participant carries a certain level of responsibility What are your thoughts?
