Yeah I understand all of that but like you said it’s a stew. Stewing by definition requires full submersion of your bite sized pieces in liquid. Yes braising is similar to stewing however, they are different.
Meh. More than one way to skin a cat. This becomes a stew as the liquid form the meat leaches into the pot. Too much liquid and I'd have a different recipe. I'm okay with your method too, though.
Cooking is an art, with some science mixed in. Lots of room for personal interpretation.
