I think the last possibility is the least likely. Another possibility is that we talk to carriers and device makers too much, and that "soft key" is too jargony.
The Phone Scoop glossary entry is (IMHO) misleading. In their entry, the "soft keys" are "Camera" and "Contacts". On non-touch phones, physical keys trigger the soft keys as the illustration shows, but on touch phones they're soft keys as well -- the difference is that you just touch them directly, instead of (or even in addition to) using a physical key.

That seems totally reasonable, and I'll make sure we revisit that in the next manual update. (Thanks!)
