For starters, .wav files are not compressed..............

Wrong.

.wav is a container format, just like .avi for "Video for Windows" and
.ogg for some types of open-source multimedia files (eg. audio encoded
with Vorbis, Speex, FLAC, and video encoded with Theora).

.wav can contain PCM data, but it could just as easily contain MP3 audio
data, ADPCM audio data, etc.

OK, I'll give you that one! OTOH, when people refer to .wav files for
audio, I have never seen anyone suggest that these were anything other
than uncompressed PCM.

9 times out of 10 the person means exactly 44.1Khz, 16bit PCM.

Well they should say that, or people will think they mean what they
write, and respond appropriately.

90% of the population can't be wrong!! :-)

Yes they can.
