See my reply just above your post. Pressing the backbutton focus button does not activate the meter per se, but wakes the camera. Same as using a shutter button half press, or simply turning the on/off switch on. Whenever the camera is awake, the meter is on.

Because the meter will operate and change exposure parameters (depending what mode you are in) whenever the camera is "active". That means it is turned on and has not fallen "asleep". Waking the camera from "sleep" is done by either half pressing the shutter button, or pressing the BF button, if enabled for focus.
