Where does it say it counts as TIE Fighter? That has not been said anywhere. The only rule is that it can be equipped if the part of its name is on that upgrade card, the condition to apply a card has to be met.

A Large ship only modification can only be equipped when the ship is large.

A "X-Wing only." modification can only be equipped if ALL OF THE WORDS "X-Wing" are listed in the SHIP'S TYPE.

Youngster's ability triggers, when the SHIP TYPE of the friendly ship has the words "TIE" and "Fighter" in it.

Counterpoint to your argument: Twin Ion Engine Mk. II

It says TIE only. Going by your logic TIE Fighter, TIE/FO Fighter, TIE Advanced, TIE Defender, TIE Phantom, TIE Interceptor, TIE Punisher, TIE Bomber are all the same ship type, namely TIE. Because "the card can only be equipped if it meets the ship type on the card". So according to you, "TIE" is a ship type. And all of the above mentioned fighters have that type.

Since they have all the same type, I can field 1 of each TIE Fighter, Interceptor, Bomber, Advanced on the Gozanti, right?

No because they all have different ship types. The rules interaction clearly only states that for the condition to APPLY HERE, THE SHIP TYPE HAS TO HAVE EVERY WORD OF THE LIMITATION IN IT.

IT. IS. NOT. THE. SAME. SHIP. TYPE.
