It is extracted for one because most video does not interweave the structure of the audio and video so it's not about counting bits or multiplying. They are separate inside the file.
You extract the audio part of a file that is labeled a video file. (video file semantically means 'video' but it often contains audio too, go figger)

Conversely, the audio section of a video file is usually 24/48 in a given codec .. so if the application has an end result of something other than that, then it did indeed convert it (as it extracted it).

Semantics .. some of the worst arguments to get into or suffer through, especially when in some cases both sides can be correct!

It's OK to try to look at it from the other side and think "yeah, I see why he'd say that"
Sometimes it's even true from both sides.
