Around here the telehandler is known as a zoom boom. And if you call it anything else you reveal yourself as full of book learning without any job experience.
who doesn’t consider a car jack to be lifting the car?
Your boss who asked for the vehicle to be put on the car lift, but you think he means the car jacks. You’re not going to last long if you can’t infer the context yourself.
If your boss asked for a pallet jack, and you come back with a forklift, he’s gonna question your intelligence. Construction and other TERMs for equipment have specific definitions and meanings. You CANT use laymen dictionary.
If you worked with these, like you claim… you clearly weren’t trained or were just some labourer.

You Jack the vehicle with a car jack.
Yes and as I already clarified earlier, a lift implies STACKING.
Also note, it specifies a SHORT DISTANCE, you can’t ignore part of a definition to suite your narritive.
