So where do you think those message we see in that
frame are?  Do you think they're in the minibuffer?
(They're not, as is easily checked.)

Do you disagree that the minibuffer frame can have any
number of lines?  Do you still claim that it must have
more than one line?  Do you still claim that there's
no echo area in such a frame, so there's no echo area
anywhere, if no other frame has a minibuffer?  Have
you even tried Emacs with only one frame that has a
minibuffer - a minibuffer-only frame?
