To me, a point and shoot camera has always been of the small pocketable
type that have barely any manual controls and maybe a few set scenes.

SLR would be a camera type (apart from being single lens reflex) that has
full manual controls aswell as auto.

Wrong many non-SLR have full manual controls also. Consider these.

You have a rather simple view of the world of cameras.

I already mentioned cameras which have full manual controls which are not
SLR
