GLSL Texel Size

Why people use this equation to specify the size of a single texel?

vec2 tex_offset = 1.0 / textureSize(image, 0);

In my opinion, this should be:

whole texels -> whole texture size
single texel -> single texel size

So

singleTexelSize = (singleTexel * wholeTextureSize) / wholeTexel = wholeTextureSize / wholeTexel

This is the whole version of the fragment shader of the Bloom lesson about OpenGL of Joey de Vries:

#version 330 core
out vec4 FragColor;
  
in vec2 TexCoords;

uniform sampler2D image;
  
uniform bool horizontal;
uniform float weight[5] = float[] (0.227027, 0.1945946, 0.1216216, 0.054054, 0.016216);

void main()
{             
    vec2 tex_offset = 1.0 / textureSize(image, 0); // gets size of single texel
    vec3 result = texture(image, TexCoords).rgb * weight[0]; // current fragment's contribution
    if(horizontal)
    {
        for(int i = 1; i < 5; ++i)
        {
            result += texture(image, TexCoords + vec2(tex_offset.x * i, 0.0)).rgb * weight[i];
            result += texture(image, TexCoords - vec2(tex_offset.x * i, 0.0)).rgb * weight[i];
        }
    }
    else
    {
        for(int i = 1; i < 5; ++i)
        {
            result += texture(image, TexCoords + vec2(0.0, tex_offset.y * i)).rgb * weight[i];
            result += texture(image, TexCoords - vec2(0.0, tex_offset.y * i)).rgb * weight[i];
        }
    }
    FragColor = vec4(result, 1.0);
}
