Oh yeah. At least at some point in the Tulip Mania, someone was actually trying to sell someone else a tulip bulb - even if by contract for a tulip at a later time.

I don't even know what this is. The most prominent NFT seems to be NBA Top Shots, and even then it seems like the speculation is on something like... an ownership claim on a limited number of pointers to play-specific metadata referring to content licensed to Dapper from the NBA, that lets decide how you want to showcase them on the platform.

No one is even promising you a goddamn tulip bulb.
