you are right, but this concerns the request, not the service.
You are talking about attributes. The gemometry is not an attribute, but
the feature itself and a WebFeatureService which does not provide the
feautures/geometries wouldn't be a FeatureService.

Perhaps there is anybody else, who can explain it better ....
