This is a source impedance lowering circuit.The base voltage is reduced by Vbe and available to the output at Ro/hfe ..
This is very low impedance drive maintaining the voltage swing the same .
For my opinion it is commonly agreed that an "emitter-coupled amplifier" is simply the classical differential pair that also can be seen as "common collector-common base" combination (both with a common emitter node).
