I’m trying to explain to the dumbest flooring salesman in the world what floor leveler is. Is there another name for the stuff?

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!

"Self-levelling compound"
You'll need a primer as well to bond to wood properly.

Over here, there are brands that work with water only and others that work with their agent only

I've found Mapei [available at Lowes] to be the best of the lot and I've tried most of them.
I still prime with Bondcrete, or the equivalent, and add some to the mixing water when using it over timber.

I guess level-best is more common here.

I've bought Mapei from Lowes in MT -- I presumed it would be available from all their branches. Not so?

count me confused. I thought you were in Britan, and we have no Lowes in Maine, except when rthe weatherman tells us that a low is going to cause another storm

SLC or self-leveling cement.
