Node is a browserless JS engine. I don’t see why saying browserless is weird.

  I don’t think anyone ever thought Node was a browser thing though

    Thinking Node is related to the browser is not uncommon. They're both javascript and javascript means "browser" to a lot of (if not most) people.

      Is not only that, Node was born from the V8 implementation in Google Chrome, not the other way around.

        So that means everyone pretends node is a browser thing? Why stop there? Why not call every JS library that happens to run in Node “browserless”?

          That answers the original question "Thinking Node is related to the browser is not uncommon." where Node and the browser ARE related.
