You’ve picked out the single definition that fits your narrative, and many many things will fit the definition “not plain”. I also see that in the definition that you linked right after it says not plain it says “ornamental.” And while I’m sure there are some people who might use children’s bee plates as an ornament, I can’t imagine that there is very many.
But beyond all that fancy also means elaborate, which they’re not. Along with ornamental, impressive, of particular excellence, decorative, expensive, and high quality. Which these plates are not.

I gave objective reasons why they don’t fit the definition fancy, but you just had to latch onto the one that wasn’t.
You just keep picking one thing that works as an argument for you while ignoring all the ones that don’t.
