Of course there's a server, or do you think you're the only genius in the room who understands client server communication? "Serverless" is a legitimate phrase to describe a growing phenomenon. Most reasonable people read "serverless" as "server I don't have to admin", not "there is no server". No one wants to read your pedantic bloviating, get over it!

Most reasonable people find the "serverless" moniker obnoxious to begin with. If something doesn't require administration then call it "adminless", not "serverless"

As others have said, serverless applies to the pricing model, in which it makes perfect sense, imo.

Yes we agree that "serverless" is pure marketing. as I already said.
