Not quite. Nearly every service out there has computational control over the end client (whether a mobile app, browser JS etc.), but very few are focused on edge compute at that level.

It is more helpful to think of it in terms of a traditional client-server architecture, where you want to move the server as close to the client as possible. This covers 95% of what people mean when they say edge compute.

I do see your point, and I agree that covers most cases, but can it really be a definition if it doesn't cover all cases? Are just talking about a distinction between "edge" in an architecture vs "edge computing?"
