> In modern times, when people say VPN they're typically referring to a VPN with only a gateway and nothing else that all traffic gets routed through.

That's not really true -- this narrower usage only seems to apply in the consumer-oriented VPN-as-a-service space. Every other context maintains the conventional terminology. Routers have VPN options, WireGuard and OpenVPN are advertised as VPN applications, businesses set up corporate VPNs to access on-premises resources, etc. All of these are referring to the standard meaning of VPN.
