Love a definition that uses its own word
It is a bit annoying, though "organically produced" is defined exhaustively on the website.
We can debate what it means effectively, but the term organic in the US means something. It's a regulated term and you can't just slap different stickers on something and call it organic. So much just straight up misinformation in this thread from people too jaded, or too lazy, to look it up.

Now I'm not saying that the regulated term "organic" doesn't have some other weird side effects, or that people haven't attempted to hoodwink the process, but the term itself carries the weight of regulation in the US. So it's not some silly, "Hurrr derrr Organic means Organic" thing like people are making it out to be.
I think what we know is that it's a scam and we don't care.
How is it a scam? There is a whole host of rules and regulations around using the term.
