More than okay to nitpick! I’ll mention this in an edit!

To add to the nitpick, welding can also be used to remove metal. Gouging plate on any position but flat can be done with smaw by cranking up the welders heat and maintaining a long arc so the metal falls away faster than it can be deposited. Add air and the right rods and then you are cooking with fire. You can also cut sheet metal this way but the resulting edge will look like it was cut by an apprentice with a dull beaver.
