Over makes sense and is what i hoped i asked because when i look at retailers websites i see stuff like this

'These neoprene tops are about as thick as a rash guard but will keep you as warm as 2mm neoprene. They have the smooth skin feel and wind breaking characteristics, but your finger nails will not rip them. They are extremely durable, comfortable, light, and warm. Wear them just as a top or as a layer under your wetsuit to significantly reduce the wind chill. '

must just be a typo in the advertising copy.

May have to try one of these i always seem to need more mm of neoprene than most of my friends

You can use it by itself when it's warm instead of a rash guard or neoprene top.
And you could wear it as a base layer under a wetsuit for a little extra warmth.
But putting it OVER your wetsuit as a top layer to prevent evaporative cooling is the main reason I LOVE this armor-skin, super-stretchy top.
