Consider it short-hand for No Decompression “stop” Limits.

If you are referring to the notion that every dive is a decompression dive then the corrected statement would be: Yes you have some N in your system, but not enough to manifest as DCS. As you approach the limits (on the PADI tables for example) the suggested safety stops become mandatory.
Ohhhhhhhhh I wouldn't say that. You can get bent on any dive.
Try to not view newer computers as more conservative. Think of them as more modern with algorithms based off more recent research. Your Suunto may leave you with less NDL on repetitive dives but thats not necessarily a bad thing.
Older dive computer, even dive tables are based off research done in the mid last century. Newer algos from the 80s & 90s and across the board seem to be more conservative. Leads me to believe that the older stuff might have been a little to on the edge for most divers. Especially those older divers, who aren't in college shape and arent up to date on modern safe diving practices or personal skills.
