You're probably dealing with industrially butchered chickens. It's faster for them to just carve off the meat and send the carcass for processing than it is to properly butcher the chicken whole. Also, sometimes it's near fucking impossible to get the lungs off the ribcage in a timely manner. If you have a grocery store with its own butcher, you can usually ask for proper breasts or even airline breasts.

I think he's counting the flats from the drumettes. Which is ok but you'd only get 12 flats since anyone who is fabricating their own breasts cuts it in an airline breast.
