You are right and I phrased my comment the wrong way.

The confusing part is not calling this process compilation, the confusing part is now calling something a compiler for which the consensus previously was calling it a pre-processor. Now I started to wonder if there is something new that I wasn't aware off, like a browser support optimized binary style format that we can compile into.
