The language from it "Open Source Scalable Vector Graphics Editor" does indeed double down on it with that text I pasted which breaks down the SVG acronym.
You guys need to set Adobe straight. All of these years they have been erroneously marketing Illustrator as "graphic design software" when apparently it is really just a ".ai editor"!
Maybe they've changed things up, but my version of AI certainly doesn't let me "save" as PNG. Every file type* listed in the "save as" dialog I can select with a reasonable expectation of reopening and having everything intact, 1:1 to the document I saved**.
* except, ironically SVG. Illustrator's SVGs have been less than reliable for me in the past.
