I think that your apparent absolute statement may have exceptions.


All turbocharged and supercharged engines are fuel injected.


a quick google search of:
turbo carb production
....seems to show counterexamples.
Mazda E5T, 78 kW 1.5L Carb 8V SOHC Turbo (limited edition.Turbo. models)
....and this

And probably lots more. A turbo with a carb is more trouble but there's
nothing magic about a turbo that makes FI necessary.

Some normally aspirated engines are fuel injected.
All carbureted engines are normally aspirated.


Nope on that one. I'm sure there are superchargers that go on one side
