> Nowhere I called them "hunter-gatherers". That's something YOU wrote. You took words "hunter" and "gathered" and created in your mind "hunter-gatherer" which is completely different because it has a specific meaning.

Someone who hunts and gathers every day is definitionally a hunter-gatherer, and vice versa. If you didn't mean to call them hunter-gatherers, then perhaps it's you who should be writing your comments more carefully.
