Bolts are for putting nuts on ... when you don’t, it’s a screw.

All bolts are screws but not all screws are bolts is more meaningful than all bourbon is whiskey but not all whiskey is bourbon...

I leave you to inform Porsche all the corrections needed in owner manuals, part catalogs and workshop manuals re: bolt vs screw.

Good luck
