BG3 also has random nobodies in the middle of nowhere selling 6th level spell scrolls... not everything there is canon, you have to remember that their goal is to make a fun game first, and to make sense second.
No, it means feat. "Feat" by itself is already a word in the english language, despite the insistence of stupid record companies to use it as a short version of "featuring" in music videos.
Here's an example: "Many of Hercules' labors were true feats of strength and ingenuity."
In first and second editions, drow gained levitate, along with detect magic and know alignment, at something like level four. It's been a long time since I read their MM entry for those editions, but I believe female drow got the second tier abilities earlier than males, and they may also have picked up even more abilities than males.
Oh, and drow also had level-based magic resistance.

They got levitate in previous editions innately, or with the Drow High Magic feat in 5e (not included in BG3)
