Delegated stuff is not simply "waiting for": we wait for things over which we have no control (the weather, a parcel arriving by post, ...) but when we delegate, we still control and chase...

I disagree partially...
Delegated stuff involves both waiting for, and a reminder that if something hasn't been done in a given time, that you take another action.
You are waiting for a response from Vendor A about the email you sent.
If it hasn't happened within a week, you have another task to email the client to check on the status.
