Suggested Answer:

Box 1: be created in the same availability set or virtual machine scale set.
The Basic tier is quite restrictive. A load balancer is restricted to a single availability set, virtual machine scale set, or a single machine.
Box 2: be connected to the same virtual network
The Standard tier can span any virtual machine in a single virtual network, including blends of scale sets, availability sets, and machines.

Here, there isn't the option "any virtual machines or virtual machine scale sets in a single virtual network". • LB1 – Basic: Be created in the same availability set or virtual machine scale set • LB2 – Standard: Be connected to the same virtual network At Standard LB - Backend pool endpoints column: "Any virtual machines or virtual machine scale sets in a single virtual network" https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/skus

I really hate how the words "basic" and "standard" are pretty close to synonyms. It'd be like a restaurant having two sizes of drink: Regular or Medium.

What's the point of load balancing a single machine?

You are NOT LOAD balancing single machine but a set of same machines that were created by scaling out due to LOAD. Just sayin'

There is no point which is why you wouldn't. But for a basic SKU load balancer it can only be attached to a single availability set. So you would create an availability set, then when you create your VMs add them to that availability set. At which point, you can now load balance multiple VMs with a Basic SKU availability set.
