It threw me at first too. Helps to think of it as wetness being an interaction between a liquid and solid. Water makes things wet, it isn’t itself wet.
This describes very specifically how water makes other things wet. Nowhere, does it describe water making itself wet, because it can’t. Wetness is a property that water can only give to other things, not to itself.
Lol literally arguing with a chemist who’s only job was studying water. Yeah I can see where you’re mistaken. Thinking you’re smarter than the professionals.

Water is wet. The fact that this is an argument is ridiculous.

water is wet. water contains moisture, because water is moisture.
Or you can go the chemical route, which is so eloquently put by Professor Richard Saykally:

Or if you’re more into videos you can watch an entire lecture on it. https://vimeo.com/11854837
Because water is fucking wet.
I see where you’re mistaken: water isn’t wet, it just makes things wet.
