My answer would be that a lid 'sits' on the top on something, as in the case of a pot or pan so it use to cover - not seal
but a cap implies that you can seal something to prevent spillages
also known as a salt-cellar
My lunch box is airtight
- though I agree it doesn't meet my definition - but as we all know there are always exceptions.
It may be my definition is not 100% right, but it's how I see it
