It's not their own definition, this was the default definition just a few years ago.

People started to use the term for something else and now it became the main meaning.

"Serverless" is nowadays "AWS Lambda" (and similar products).

I wish people called it FaaS (function as a service), but they call it "serverless", and it's fine I guess

Yeah, now the term is an oxymoron, "serverless" but there is a server and a client.
