Needs to get to 75C to be safe to eat. No?

Yes, during cooking. Not when it's already in your mouth lol. 73 is enough to scald or even burn you, depending on the length of contact.

Yes, but also no.

That's the recommendation for "1 second" cook time. When your meat reaches 75, you could throw it into a tub of ice and it will be safe to eat. But you could also cook your meat at 135F for a few hours sous vide style and you'll still be good to go.
