Lucio Chiappetti supplied the following gem..
Well, your "terminals" (windows, telnet etc.) are "pseudo-ttys", the
ttypn and ttyqn things, aren't they ?
"ttys" are REAL tty ports like tty00 and tty01, are you planning to
add a new card with more serial ports ?
Which makes everything perfectly clear.
(Perhaps this information is in the documentation but I gave up
searching after about 20 mins)
