Which is all the same as what unit test was originally defined as.

You're right that "unit test" has taken on another, rather bizarre definition in the intervening years that doesn't reflect any kind of tests anyone actually writes in the real world, save where they are trying to write "unit tests" specifically to please the bizarre definition, but anyone concerned about definitional purity enough to quibble about it will use the original definition anyway...
