That explains your answer.

However doesn't this help hold the meat together tremendously?
I've never needed any binder to hold my burger meat together and, if you add a binder, you will ultimately overwork the meat to do it and have a brick for a burger. That's the reason I don't like many meatloaves I've had. They're dry and overworked meat. I found one recipe that had some odd ingredients which resulted in a moist end product.
People use egg and breadcrumbs to stretch out the meat to serve more people. They're fillers, not binders.

Means it was cooked in a vacuum sealed bag in a water bath. Low temperatures for longer period.

I know people wrap bacon around it. I am guessing that could possibly keep it from drying out as much

Olive oil on the outside does the same and helps lock in the juices.
I don't understand this either.

Deep Fried Burger
Saw this the other day and thought it was an interesting way to cook a burger. Seems like it would be too greasy.

Used to work with a chef that would drop a 38 dollar steak in the fryer if it was ordered well-done.

100 year old grease
IMO
100 year old grease

searing meat does not "lock in" the juices.

Alton Brown scientifically proved that searing doesn't lock in shite.

Try cooking one without olive oil and without searing it. If you don't overcook it, it will be just as juicy.

Did this for years.
Honestly, the flavor is better with the oil. That's why I like it

Nothing sets off the flavor of steak quite like ketchup.

Handling the meat a little as possible and not overcooking will lend you the juciest burger no matter how you cook it. Even a well done burger done properly will still be juicy. When you're done forming patties your hands shouldn't be covered in fat.

That's a different reason to use olive oil. I can understand that, but olive oil and searing do not lock in juices. Properly cooking the burger does that.
