The apollo era space suits (A7-L) where generally produced in an “EVA” configuration. It had protective, cooling and comfort layers but no mobilty enhancement. I would personally think they count more as a protective suit than a veichle, as compared to the MMU with mobility enhancing features.
I personally consider the A7-L, not a proper EVA unit, it does not allow activity in space outside of a veichle or terrestrial body. An MMU veichle can be used to perform a wide range of activities outside the ISS wereas an IL-7, could not.
ofc it’s all personal speculation and arguments can be made all around, thats just my take on it.
