No, in that context you would say jacket.

Yes, in that context I would say coat. I say “puffer” when I want to describe the kind of coat.

You’re just uncultured. I ain’t a northie by any means. I ain’t never gonna be a northie.

I'm going to pay attention the next time I'm in a store that sells jackets. I'll be looking closely for the p word.

A wind breaker is light. It’s plasticy, something to protect you from the wind. Not heavy and puffy.

But they’re still called jackets

Yes. Jacket/coat is like an umbrella group, with many things falling underneath.
