It's just one of those culinary terms where there's no strict definition.

Banana bread is technically a "quickbread" which is any bread leavened without yeast or eggs. It's such a broad term that it includes brioche, cake, scones, muffins, biscuits, cornbread, beer bread, and pancakes.

It's like all the shit that gets called a vegetable based on its culinary use despite being a fruit like tomatoes cucumbers and peppers. Or strawberries and raspberries not actually being berries. Or cheesecake being more of a custard pie.

I have a problem with googling things  >.<

Cakes are a type of quickbread but not all quickbread is cake. Definitely cake texture though.

plus with desk jobs you don't have to clean up literal toddler shit off the floor or deal with a super noisy work environment, standing up for ~7 hours a day, having your hours fluctuate constantly, and you can actually check your phone or shit online for at least a minute, probably more
