In fact, many "normal" phone apps are basically just a web-site inside a thin wrapper. So the difference is largely academic in many cases.

It's not giving a "I'm installing an application" vibe, it is giving "I am creating a shortcut to a website" vibes. Apps are installed via the app store, not as weird quasi-bookmarks in your browser.
