because once they package it and create the label it has moved from the processing (or fulfillment or whatever you wanna call it) to shipping stage. They’ve put it in their outgoing “bin” and for all intents and purposes it has been shipped from their POV. Really no different than if I drop a package off at FedEx and it sits in their sorting process for a day or two before it actually starts moving to you.

to simplify. It has been shipped, in that the process of getting it from them to you has officially begun.
