This is true as well.

I just tried to give a bit further, linguistic type breakdown for watson in another comment.

Yeah its... kinda hard to nail down precisely how this term truly, fully works in English, at the moment.

Which itself is extremely meta, in a different sense of the word meta.

    It's the same sense of the word. In language terms, meta is self-referential. In gaming terms, the metagame is the game within the game.

    Often, games turn into a rock-paper-scissors format where three different strategies fight for dominance to the exclusion of anything non-meta.
