But if a takeoff were a takeoff, that wouldn't be true.

So what is you definition of the word "takeoff".

For the sane world it is "the phase of flight in which an aircraft goes
through a transition from moving along the ground (taxiing) to flying in
the air, usually starting on a runway."

A takeoff is a takeoff by any sort of aircraft and it doesn't matter to
the definition of the word whether the aircraft is an airplane, helicopter,
blimp, balloon, or rocket.
