What does cocked and locked mean to you?

I've lately been having a bit of a disagreement with a fellow I met, who claims to be a long standing NRA certified firearms instructor.

He asserts that carrying a Glock with a round in the chamber is correctly referred to as "cocked and locked".

I've always understood that term to mean carrying a semiauto with an external hammer, cocked, and the safety lever locked in the safe position. And 999 times out of 1000, cocked and locked is being used to describe a 1911. I've never heard anyone say a GLock was cocked and locked, and I don't think it's correct.

What do y'all think? Am I all wet on this?
