Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t this 80% meat and 20% vegetables and thus not vegetarian? If so, this isn’t the same kind of product as an actual vegetarian/vegan patty that is made from vegetable protein only.
I agree with you that the product you linked is labelled confusingly. But it won’t ever be called “vegetarian patty” but rather “meat reduced patty”.

Personally, buying 2 or 4 I’d be surprised that these products contain plants. But I fail to see how 1 and 3 would surprise anyone anymore. “Vegan” and “vegetarian” are terms I’d expect any adult to understand as “does not contain meat/anything from an animal”. So, calling anything “vegan sausage” clearly communicates that it is “vegan food in sausage shape” or “vegan food that is intended to replace sausage”.
