No it isn’t. Those things are often correlated but not equivalent. New information can be gained that increases the expected work remaining despite additional valuable work having been done.
That seems to be a better fit for the impression of progress. You wouldn’t tend, in retrospect, to call it progress if you realised you’d been going in completely the wrong direction.
This would fit with progress simply be the reduction of work remaining.

Progress is reduction of expected work remaining compared to your revised expectation of how much work remained yesterday.

Right. I think this is more an operationalization than a strict definition.
Yes, what RobbBB said.

That’s progress.
Yes. That is the point.
