If you sit in a seat, it's not a suit.

And the ones in aliens were but they didn't call them that. Being a bit pedantic aren't you.

The Aliens power lifters are on the border of "Suit". You stand in them. The arms and legs have your arms and legs inside them, and they move as yours do. So yah I'd call that a suit that you wear. Just barely.
