hahaah. Ok sure you win. Linux TTY's are absolutely not terminals. Sure they are called terminals, they are for all intents and purposes modern-day terminals with a long and storied history that directly links them to terminals from the 70's but since they aren't a physical piece of hardware that electro-mechanically connects to a mainframe, obviously they aren't really terminals and they should be be called something else.
