It's not serverless, it's just someone else's server

Yeah, yeah, but I don't have to patch it.

Don’t have to patch the host at least… I think we have a 6 week sla for certain compliances to ensure we are patching our containers, code, and deps regularly.

That sounds like a problem for IT, not a dev. ;)

Exactly, it is as much serverless as the offering that allowed to host php sites back in the day.

Serverless is more associated with micro services where each micro service can scale independently from each other.

It is, but the idea how it works is roughly the same.

That you don't need to care about.. as a dev you want to write your code, deploy and not have to care about the underlying server maintenance.. you are paying for that to be someone else's problem.
