Although, as I've already said, I agree with your conclusion, it is possible that they are using action as shorthand to refer to both actions and free actions. This kind of naming is common.
In a similar vein ask yourself if a Slicing Dagger is a Dagger. Or if a Boss Minion is a minion. You'll find that your logic doesn't always apply.
Asking if a Free Action is an Action is perfectly cromulent.

Did you miss the part about "In addition to performing an action"? It's quite clear that they are separate! Sorry for the snarkiness, it was just in good fun, but I think the rules as written are quite clear.
