Technically it isn't mitigation because there is still a small chance you can be hit for a certain amount of damage. But that's nitpicking.

Mitigation is just a word that means lessened severity. There's no rule saying it has to be guaranteed or follow a specific scaling formula or anything. If it's a mechanic whose sole function is to reduce individual instances of damage, it's mitigation. But yeah, it's nitpicking.
