You are comparing apples and oranges. A terminal emulator emulates a terminal.
Telnet is a program for connecting interactively from one computer to another,
and have nothing to do with terminal emulation.
True for most operating systems. On Windows, the two tend to get combined
because you don't have a reasonable shell or terminal emulator window. So
network terminal programs like PuTTY combine the telnet (and/or SSH) function
with a terminal emulator.
True. But then we're not really talking about "regular telnet", but a
program like PuTTY, which has telnet as the transport layer. Telnet is
still not a terminal emulation - PuTTY is, in this case.
