He's right, and you're right. Web technologies have a low barrier to entry, so it's easy to go from inexperienced to productive.
Advanced native tools with a powerful language in the hands of a master programmer will be much more productive for the reasons he cites. The type system in particular, with a well-worn toolbox of primitives can make you extremely effective.
