It actually means a lot more than that in offline VFX. It was the games industry that decided it meant “use the Disney shader”.

I updated my comment. I guess I need to read up on that. I read of so many areas in which PBR stops short in offline contexts, like using constant BRDFs which is a little unnecessary with offline rendering. What am I not understanding there?

I’m not quite sure of what you’re asking exactly here? What do you mean by constant brdfs?
