They have to mean something, but you have articulated a rather large problem. It is apparently impossible for a slayer to miss. No one's that good.I read the reaper ability simpler than that. He/she always hits with melee weapons (at least in the senses you explain). The D20 roll is just to determine how well. The "hit" and "miss" terms are stretched somewhat (becoming game mechanics terms, not descriptions of the action), but you don't have to take them literally in all circumstances.
