Right, including Smalltalk 76 and 80 onwards themselves. Remember Kay's statement "actually I made up the term object-oriented and I can tell you I did not have C++ in mind, so the important thing here is I have many of the same feelings about Smalltalk" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKg1hTOQXoY&t=636s); the reason he refers to Smalltalk this way in his 1997 talk was likely the fact that Smalltalk-80 has more in common with Simula 67 than his brain child Smalltalk-72. Ingalls explicitly refers to Simula 67 in his 2020 HOPL paper.
