Dec 9, 2009 at 19:00 comment added Andrew Critch I was missing something, and this clears up everything, thank-you!
Dec 9, 2009 at 18:40 comment added Pete L. Clark I now support Greg's answer. It makes clear though that the "abstract linear disjointness" is not a straightforward generalization of "ambient linear disjointness" for transcendental extensions.

Extended answer
Dec 9, 2009 at 7:42 comment added Andrew Critch I don't think your last sentence is correct for extensions of infinite degree, because then I don't think an injective map to a compositum $E \otimes_k F \to E.F$ is necessarily surjective, in which case I don't see how to infer the tensor product is a field. Am I missing something?
