I believe their analogy is indeed predicated on having little to no downtime available. Think eggs Benedict for four in 15 minutes rather than a five hour brisket braise.
If you batch together cooking as well as cleaning tasks just because they both happen to be in the kitchen one ends up getting overwhelmed by both context switching as well as motivation.
