Not one of you has called it a hot water heater yet.
Well done, carry on.

We used to have three water heaters in a series. So the first one just took the cold outside water and warmed it up before getting to the second one and that heated it more for the final water heater. Then it could flow out to the film and paper processors and supply a continuous supply of warm water. The film processors needed 100 degree water for hours on end.
In the summer if the water temps from the city were warm enough we could turn off the gas to the first water heater.
It was a LOT cheaper than buying some monster commercial water heater. So we indeed had a hot water heater. That last water heater was heating the water even more to mix with the incoming cold water to mix at the processor's mix valve.
