Because if it only meant atomic precision there wouldn't be much technology to speak off. When I learned about it, it was under the definition he gave (2010).
A carbon nanotube, however long, is still nanotechnology since its diameter is in nanometers.
That's my point; there isn't much technology to speak of yet, but unscrupulous people want to apply the sexy term to whatever they're doing anyway.
By their definition, a gas is nanotech :)
Sure but people are good enough not to call it that.
