How does the BATF regulate around that with out screwing up the definition of semi automatic ?
The BATF can't change the legal definition of anything. They can only issue opinions about the existing law.

So right off the bat, a BATF opinion won't change any legal definitions and it won't be a new regulation.

There is no definition (nor mention) in the actual law of bump-fire stocks which is why a BATF opinion was issued on the topic. Assuming that they changed their mind after looking at the facts, they would reverse their previous ruling.
