If these really are his first steps, he’s walking surprisingly confidently

Babies don’t stand up like that for their first steps. Babies taking their first steps still have to pull themselves up using an aide of some sort.

Yes, however, a child is considered to be able to walk when they stand up without aide and then take their step. Which often happens much later after they learn to pull themselves up, scoot around or walk from one piece of furniture to another nearby.
