By your definition, a "cut" would be an effect. It alters the original footage.
How about "something that alters the contents of the original frames, not just their relative order"?
Well, that's just insane! No, no, that's not right at all!!

I'd say it depends on how the flashes are used. If they are well done, well synced, and complex, then they are effects - see exhibit A. Otherwise, they are not effects.
