I would presume that, you are correct, he doesn’t understand what the term “processed“ means in food preparation context. He probably thinks that it isn’t processed because it’s just, slaughtered, shipped, cut, and packed and shipped again.
He’s ruling, not by fact, but by “vibes”. I bet he “feels “that the word “processed” means that it’s “stuffed full of chemicals and GMO”. Which, is in and of itself, another remarkably stupid statement to make. But I’ll save that for another time.
Theres quite a bit in between “shipped” and “cut” for bacon. Curing salt (brining or dry application, to prevent bacteria from growing while in the temperature danger zone), this process takes a week or so, and then smoking it (preservation/flavor).
Without looking into it at all, maybe he is thinking it isn’t ultra processed? Either way, he’s still an idiot.
