Its not a typo but describes a product difference. ELT is a common term for a new type of data eng workflow that isn't mapped to ETL. In most ELT products the raw data is loaded into and then transformed by the data warehouse tool. As opposed to the ETL pipelines many of us are used to where the data gets transformed in a separate process before being dropped into the DW.
