That's kind of the point. The term "ethnic" has come to be used where
other terms are now politically incorrect. But where the use of ethnic
is incorrect.
And there is no concept of minority or exceptional in the adjective
"ethnic". The majority population has its own ethnic characteristics
and they form an ethnic group like any other. If people must use the
term, they should at least say "minoriity ethnic" rather than just
"ethnic". Otherwise it doesn't make sense.



I understood it perfectly.

Perhaps usage has changed without you realising?

No, its just that you inhabit a bubble who all use words wrongly, spell
badly, and never studied English Grammar and who think they are in the
right.
