Being full-stack does not mean you are a HTML and CSS expert. Anyone hiring a full-stack dev should know that. Full-stack means you can create a functional web application. It doesn't have to be in the latest JS library.

Many non-tech employers careless about your stack, as long as the application performs the tasks they want and the cost is reasonable.

A full stack dev most likely won't be an expert in any particular area but should have a good understanding of the web so they can pick up different JS libraries, web frameworks easily.

Just call yourself a web developer then. Does someone outside of the tech world really know what full-stack means without an explanation?

And also, I don't consider full-stack exclusive to the web. Desktop apps, for example.

"full stack" is a pretentious term web devs made up for themselves.
