Funny that they go to a dictionary definition - that's because if they read the definition from the same code that defines a money transmitter, their argument falls apart:
"Money Transmitter":
https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-31/subtitle-B/chapter-X/part-1010/subpart-A/section-1010.100#p-1010.100(ff)(5)
"Transmittal of funds":
https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-31/part-1010/section-1010.100#p-1010.100(ddd)
"Funds transfer":
https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-31/part-1010/section-1010.100#p-1010.100(w)
These regulations clearly are about financial institutions accepting orders to pay (negotiable instruments) and paying a third party on someone else's behalf.

Are Covenants Necessary for Bitcoin? with Brandon Black
Stephan Livera Podcast episode 537
https://stephanlivera.com/episode/537/
Not everybody understands that blockchains themselves don’t scale. And this may create some tricky implications if we want to onboard large numbers of people to Bitcoin. This is why some of the discussion nowadays is about soft forks and covenants. Brandon Black rejoins me to talk about some of his ideas on how many people can use Bitcoin with current tech, and how covenants such as CTV (Check Template Verify) could help improve this. We discuss:
* How many people can use Bitcoin
* Why not build L3?
* Thoughts on block size
* “Rush to the exits”
* Different kinds of forks
* Covenant proposals explained in english
* Concrete proposals
* Commercial demand
* Unforeseen risks
* Value density
