I agree.
If you put Ethernet backbones between the access points, then it would no longer be a proper Mesh, but it's equivalent to a Mesh and you can even buy Mesh routers and connect them with wired backbones. You'd be forgiven for calling it a Mesh.
Proper mesh networks have a wireless backbone between the access points. That's what makes them look like a Mesh when you try to visualize the topography.
