It’s quite a coincidence that I saw several questions and answers from netizens on Reddit again.
A netizen asked:
Is there a difference between a coat and a jacket?
Is there a difference? What are all the types of coats and jackets? (I know a parka is a considered a coat). Are the terms “coat” and “jacket” used interchangeably?

Netizen replied:
The Marvel Rivals devs are out here dropping the most fire skins! How do they keep this up?
A coat can be longer than a jacket. 99% of the jackets stop at your waist.
A coat can be full length, mid length ( knee length ), or waist length
Yeah this is the answer. Also a suit jacket is often referred to as just a jacket.
Coat vs Jacket
They’re relatively interchangeable, but I think a jacket is lighter than a coat
A coat is heavier, and explicitly intended for outdoor use.
When I think of “coat”, I think of something thick enough to be warm in very cold temps. It isn’t something to be worn inside.
When I think of “jacket”, I think of lighter weight items that are just meant for “cool” weather and not actually cold weather. Or a fashion item just intended to complete a look.
