If it's not an oven then why can you bake inside of it?

Because it's used for cooking farts, the traditional staple crop of the Netherlands.

It's an oven. You can use it as an oven by putting a lid on it and baking inside it.

its a mini oven (dutch oven). it creates a consistent micro climate that buffers out the fluctuations in the oven temperature.
so its an oven within an oven.

The term 'Dutch oven' originated as a pejorative slang term. The English fought four wars with the Dutch, with short interruptions of peace, lasting about a century in total. During this time the English concocted a vast array of slurs for the Dutch. There are actually said to be more insults for the Dutch in the English language than for any other ethnic group, although many of them are now considered archaic.
Examples include 'Dutch wife,' a term that means 'prostitute,' or to say someone's speaking 'Double Dutch' means they're spouting incoherent gibberish. A 'Dutch holiday' was a vacation where someone cleaned or did housework the entire duration. Eventually anything that was considered to be a weird/bad/backwards solution for something had 'Dutch' affixed to it.
Actually the English came to call most Germanic peoples' 'the Dutch' for many years, a corrupted form of 'Deutschland' which is of course the German name for, well, Germany. The Netherlands is literally 'the low-lands' of Germany, and the people that inhabit it are a Germanic tribe. This is ironic, because the English, descended from the Anglo-Saxons, are a Germanic tribe as well.
That's where the name Dutch Oven comes from. It was originally perceived by the English as a poor substitute for a real oven. And because white-on-white racism is the one type of racism the elites have deemed acceptable, the name persists to this day.

Correct. Adding on, originally it wouldn't have been an oven in an oven. It would've been an oven in a fireplace or on a campfire, when the ability to have a consistent climate and temperature was much more limited. It fulfills the exact role of an oven and has for a long time. We just nest ovens like Russian dolls nowadays when cooking because we've gotten to the point where we all have large boxes in our homes to serve as primary ovens. And having two ovens isn't really weird. Most people own at least a second one to go with their primary oven: a toaster oven, microwave oven, air fryer, separate convection and conventional ovens, Dutch ovens, and even specialty ovens like tandoor or pizza ovens.
