While I agree with everything else you said a limiter is NOT a compressor by a more acceptable name.
A limiter is a compressor used at it's most brutal setting ie the maximum possible compression ratio.
Follow Ups:
A compressor lowers the peaks and raises the quieter parts.
A limiter just lowers the peaks.

Not necessarily. If you adjust the record level so that it's correct for an entire performance except the cannons going off near the end, they will be the only part compressed. The rest of the recording will be fine.
Most of the factory cassettes I owned decades ago were awful.
Best? TDK SA-X blanks and a decent CD player. At the dawn of the CD age? This would be about '83 or so, I made a few tapes and people were out snapping up CD players.....It was THAT MUCH better than anything they'd ever heard, especially on tape.
Neighbor kid had 600$ or 700$ in car stereo which was blown away by my awful and stock system in my Honda Accord....when playing one of my tapes.
Too much is never enough
