I think their opinion is that fries/salad is a lazy choice of sides to complete a meal. A traditional meal is usually a combination of protein, starch, and veg. In that regard, steak+fries+salad is a “meal”, but it’s definitely low-effort and designed to make people not hungry as cheaply as possible.
Good restaurants will create thoughtful sides that truly add to the dish, so it doesn’t feel like you’re eating “steak and some other shit”.

This is exactly my point, well put!
I feel like that is the perfect definition of what a steak is. It’s STEAK!!! And some other shit.
Yep. If I’m going out to get a really good steak, I give less than an ounce of a fuck what it comes with.
