A site is a network of computers with a single administration, this can mean indeed a major corporation (who maybe even require multiple /48's which is why rfc4193 is a bit off to cover those cases)

Where has the IETF redefined the meaning of the word "site"?
In plain English, this word refers to a distinct physical location such
as an office or building or campus.

That's true, in plain English. However, as the agonising over
deprecating site-local showed, it doesn't quite work in the
Internet since corporate intranets arose. So it has certainly
been used in IPv6 discussions for anything from a dentist's
office network up to a corporate network with multiple
physical sites and multiple interconnects to the Internet.
I think that's why the word "site" is not part of the
name of a ULA. It creates confusion.
