The purchase and sale of humans, or the lack of such transactions is a meaningless distinction?

by which definition of slavery do we have “purchase and sale of humans” as part of that definition?!

Article 1(1) of the 1926 Slavery Convention: “Slavery is the status or condition of a person over whom any or all of the powers attaching to the right of ownership are exercised.”

just because you are not purchased/sold does not mean your condition cannot be defined as slavery
