But .txt is not the same as .rs; yet .txt is not the same as .docx, although both of these files look the same to the human eye.

Someone will probably correct me – but the funny thing is that stuff like docx and xls are just a zipped/tarballed collection of different kinds of files. So I would add whatever the official term for “zipped/tarballed” to your list.
Don’t understand this.
Compressed files. Files that contain other files in a form that takes less space but needs more processing to access
Try renaming a docx file extension to zip. Then open the file, you’ll see that there are other files (mostly XML) inside. The docx is a container.
“Archive” is probably the word you’re looking for.
