You’re right. Your post inspired me to look up oed.com, which is the “full” OED and available through many British public libraries.
The quality of that definition seems to be rather terse and restrictive as well. It’s got a lot of references to obscure and historic meanings of “coach”, but sense (e) is quite simply “a single-decker bus” with some references.
And even good old Megabus (a budget coach company) has double-decker coaches[1].
