I learned early on that

{} means "Braces" and [] means "Brackets and menas "Parenthesis".

Even coders use that language, so I refer to them that way. You may have learned differently, so agree to dissagree. :|

I'm just telling you calling {} brackets is not wrong; plenty of people do it. Even respected dictionaries like Merriam-webster include it:

(meaning 3a lists "brace" as a synonym for "bracket")
