Pour-over or...not pour-over

I am under the impression that the terms "pour-over" and "drip" in terms of brewing coffee are interchangeable. However: when reading this review: Cafelat Robot Review it seems not to be the case. So, what exactly is pour-over? Is it a widely accepted term in the context used in the article?

Pour-over means you pour water manually.

Most often refers to V60 and such manual drip brewers.

It's not a definition for the brew method, it's just his description of how the basket/portafilter gets saturated. The generally accepted terms for brewed coffee are percolation and immersion.
