Yes. I would agree, that is a great description! As with my short description at the top of the post, i think its important to mention the historical significance. The biggest thing i take from your description as the stack being ‘vertically integrated’ i was struggling for those words during my talk.

On of the things i like about ‘the stack’ as a slightly more abstract term, is that one can refer to ‘everything’ between point A -> point B as ‘the stack’ and then begin to critically tease out specifics.

Thanks for the comment!

When I use the term, I use it to mean an ensemble of discrete technologies, operating at different levels of abstraction, vertically integrated to produce one (generally, nominally seamless) user experience — but I’m always acutely aware that other people will have different things in mind. I’m curious what your take is.
