I don't think you really need to say "distinct" after you've said "sets
of". Sets are by definition collections of distinct objects. Likewise,
"multisets of" would imply that the objects are not necessarily
distinct. If it just said "collections of", it would be in need of
further clarification.

Incidentally the title for A000938
"From the no-3-in-line problem on n X n grid (see references for
precise
definition)."
could be more informative.
"Sets of 3 collinear points in an nXn grid" seems minimal.
Then misgivings about precision come in
"Sets of 3 distinct collinear points in an nXn grid"
...and so forth
