If I were to walk out into the street and ask a rando for an iPhone charger, they’d either have one or they wouldn’t, but they’d understand what I was talking about.
If I were to do the same, except ask for an iPhone mains adapter, I’d draw blank stares from almost everyone.
Ergo, they are chargers.
Things people call chargers that aren't chargers. For example the mains adapter for your mobile phone or the high current socket for your EV.
