Why is Home Assistant an operating system and not an application installable through distro packages?

Maybe I’m just old school and distro package means something different to me, but here is a link to the Home Assistant .deb distro package:

the Home Assistant .deb distro package

Firstly, that’s a .deb but it’s not from a distro. Secondly, that .deb doesn’t contain Home Assistant, it contains some “Supervised” which runs the Home Assistant Docker container:
