Memory is storage.

You can easily watch a video on youtube and store it for later. In fact, you could do that entirely in memory, preserved between boot cycles if you wanted to.

Memory and storage are physically two different things. They're distinctly different terms because they're used for different things. The fact that you can use shenanigans to store stuff in memory doesn't change that. A screwdriver isn't a hammer just because you can use its butt end to hammer in nails.
