So you say he's not talking about ksharus when he says the word kashrus.

But his implication is still that there is an issur cheftza on the
resulting meat. That hast yet to be proven. There might be an
issur derabbanan if there is a communal notion of mesayeiah -- if
the frum community supporting the white veal industry is en mass
mesayeia ZBC. I don't know if what's going on can create an
issur on me personally buying the meat.

But to us the word "kosher" would imply the meat may not be eaten.
Even if sypporting the industry is mesayeia, it would not prohibit
the meat once obtained. (And what if I obtained it as a gift, or
a guest at someone's se'udah, and mesayeia is a non-issue for me.)

Tir'u baTov!
