He's not missing your point. He's even mentioning a valid Aura is another way to use Semblance, that's why Weiss gets exhausted during the Nevermore fight after using so many glyphs at once. Saying that Aura is his semblance is the same as saying that gas and fire are the same thing. They're related and one of them is the trigger to the other one but they're still different.

Also, Ren already can strengthen his own aura beyond normal levels to completely negate an attack and he doesn't need a semblance to do so, that's a normal application of aura. Now the healing and creating shields is another thing.
