MODERATORS
To be clear, "meat" is 99% of what's not bones. Tendons, skin, fat, nerves... All that is meat. If they don't mention which cut, assume it's "all".
I don't really think that's bad. If you're going to breed animals, you might as well use it to it's full extend for human consumption.
Your definition of meat is in a very gray area of definition. In fact, by most definitions I could say yours is incorrect. Either by stating that since bone is edible, it is also meat. Or that meat is considered only what is inside the skin. Or by saying that is isn't meat since it's not muscle. Or by saying that animals aren't the only things that have meat.

Muscles, connective tissue, collagen, fat... All that is meat. It also includes internal organs such as feet, intestines, lungs...
Please now show me your legal definition, the only one that matters in this case.
"Legal" definition changes by every country. The US, for instance has two different levels for what constitutes "meat" depending on how its obtained. Normal cuts of meat, which does not include organs or a lot of other things, and the "mechanically separated meat" which does include those things. This varies even more on a state level in some cases.
Long story short, your legal definition is only good for your country you provide it from (UK, in your case) and it doesn't mean jack shit anywhere else.
Not sure what's funnier, that you brought a meaningless distinction, that you defined the arbitrary levels wrong or... That you ended up concluding it's ask "meat" hence just agreeing with my very point.
Until you come with a source of what "meat" means legally in your selected country, all you said does, in fact, mean "Jack Shit"
