Referring to things as carbon neutral is typically shorthand for net neutral CO₂e (or net-zero) CO₂e.

You’re pedantically right that the machine is not creating or destroying carbon atoms, but the things it does create have massive “carbon dioxide equivalence”. Or, phrased differently: the emissions of this equipment are equivalent to emitting significant amounts of carbon dioxide.

They also reek havoc on people’s lungs.
