You actually did say it requires consensus or eventually consistency algorithm. Your definition is too strict. Distributed systems are systems where the components of a system are distributed across a network. There are more issues than just consistency of data. You could have a system that doesn’t store data at all but still is considered distributed due to the nature of it being spread across a network.
