Default "Movement Area" (airplanes and trucks)

You're pretty funny (read, "idiotic").


Ya think?



The areas within the non-movement area are not defined as "runway" or
"taxiway", with respect to that regulation.


They're not? What are they defined as? What controlled airport has a
runway that is designated as nonmovement area?



Movement (including operation of an aircraft) without a clearance from ATC
happens all the time in non-movement areas at airports all over the
country.


Correct.



It happens that at Renton, they have defined the non-movement
area to include all of the airport except the runway. Technically, that
means that the pavement one taxis on is not a "taxiway".


Oh? Well then what is the pavement that one taxis on in nonmovement area
that is not loading ramps or parking areas called?



You wishing it to be otherwise doesn't make it so.


Agreed. It is the definition of nonmovement area in the Pilot/Controller
Glossary that makes it so.

NONMOVEMENT AREAS- Taxiways and apron (ramp) areas not under the control of
air traffic.
