Yeah, he agrees with you...actually used that example later in the chat.
He's mostly coming from the perspective that outs are hugely important, and you don't give them up unless there's a profoundly big payoff.

Wrong, he says that if you have 1st and 2nd and bun them over to 2nd and 3rd, it's a good out.
I agree with him- my least favorite play in baseball is bunting with a man on 2nd.
