at https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Qemu/KVM_Virtual_Machines we have:

>If the NUMA option is used, it is recommended to set the number of sockets to the number of nodes of the host system.

i guess this is meant to be "NUMA nodes" , as shown by lscpu ? ( see https://superuser.com/questions/916516/is-the-amount-of-numa-nodes-always-equal-to-sockets )

then it would be better to call it like that, as "nodes" in proxmox terminology typically refers to cluster node. this could be a little bit ambiguous.
