They're saying meaning is not endemic to any such thing. Colloquially when invoking "meaning" the idea that we are the arbiters of it, while true, seems less popular than one where it's absolute, whether discoverable or otherwise.
That's not surprising because it's downstream from religion, where we don't get to decide what's meaningful: we are told.
It's neither here nor there because what it's really about is a feeling, not a rationalization.
