No, it is no change in definition. It is a vaccine and that lag happens with all vaccines. Think about it, you can come in contact with a flu virion and it will begin replicating until your immune system responds up its antibody production to that specific strain.

I've never had luck with flu shots. I've always gotten sick from them.

I get the lag-time aspect, but "your symptoms won't be as severe for as long if/when you get it again" (my interpretation) does not seem to fit the definition of a true vaccine.
