It's not the host header, it's the SNI name. This is basically the same as domain fronting, just using another protocol within TLS.

SNI exists because TLS needs a way to discriminate separate certificates for the benefit of requests on the same port using distinct HTTP/1.1 Host headers. In my experience it's absolutely routine to talk about them using the same terminology.
