Explain to me how a one page sketch can be a prototype? A concept, sure. But a prototype?

The point of a prototype is to communicate a design concept and see how it works. You can't really see/show how something works with just one sketch.

I disagree. Even a one-page paper sketch can be a prototype - just a
low-fidelity prototype. See Carolyn Snyder's book, Paper Prototypes. I
often sketch ideas out before heading to Visio where they become
mid-fidelity prototypes. Once you add some colors and images - then it's
a high-fidelity prototype.

In theory, theory and practice are the same.
In practice, they are not.
