Is a flying wing considered to have a fuselage?

It has a fuselage if any body portion extends beyond the “natural” planform of the wing. That includes a “squashed” cross-section nacelle or boom if the resulting section through it is not an “airfoil”, and if there is a clear chord length “jump” to the body region.
