Seems more like a sales pitch than anything which conveys real information. And, as they imply (but others posting here dispute), if it's better in all cases, why wouldn't it be on in all cases? Why didn't they mention the downsides to enabling it?

There are two parts here:

1. We've started using our own backbone of fibre links to carry traffic.

2. The Argo product for route optimization and working around Internet problems.

#2 can take advantage of #1 now that it exists. #2 is a paid product.
