I think the difference though, is that people who use the term "teacup" are generally misinformed and need to be corrected. People who use the term "teapot" know that teacups don't exist, just like teapots don't exist. Both are terms used for referencing the size of a Yorkie. However - the term teacup is used mainly by breeders who want to take advantage of buyers, or buyers who are about to be lied to and cheated out of their money. Hence the corrections. It is also used by snooty people who think their dog is better than yours because it weighs 2lbs.
