It is similar to how "SuperSpeed" is still used to describe USB 3.0 at 5 Gbps. It looks like SuperSpeed became standard in 2008. Since then, USB 4 has reached speeds of 40 Gbps, with 80 and even 120 Gbps on the horizon.
"Fast charging", "Super fast charging", and "SuperSpeed" are unfortunately accepted as specific marketing terms. Which means that while they are antiquated and misleading, they are technically still valid terms.
Side note: Most mobile device greatly slow down their charging speeds based in part by how full the battery is. Many tests have demonstrated devices supporting 25W+ when the battery is almost empty. But the speeds often end up around something unexpected like 10W by the time the battery is half or two-thirds full. That takeaway being that using a 25W charger isn't a clear 2.5x speedup over a 10W charger like you may think.
