The UI and UX are indeed on top of the OS:

Not what is part of MeeGo brand, but what is the MeeGo OS.

And the point of distinction against Maemo, MeeGo has reference (in other words, "voluntary") UX and UIs, which are not part of the OS. Has Maemo 5 ever offered the choice of voluntary UX and UI? - As far as I know you had no choice so some people referred (perhaps improperly so) to the UX and UI as part of the Maemo 5 OS or inextricably hooked into the OS.

This is important thing. It can lead to Android-like ecosystem which is quite different in this respect from Maemo.
