But the host application does much more than just connect to MCP servers, as the host is one-to-many client connections. The host application also has OTHER client connections to AI agents and so-forth. I think it can be confusing in general it’s like understanding X11 where the client-server relationship is conceptually flipped. :)

Yes, that is the case, but they could have called just connections, a MCP Client (host) keeps multiple open connections to MCP servers. Everywhere in the docs and in the internet peoplE MCP Client the app connecting to mcp servers, not MCP hosts.
