He's clearly saying it is a matter of degree when he details the submachinegun analogy to it, and a matter of cost when he compares actual costs of a human troll-farm.
I think he was wrong about several things, mostly in dismissing and its generalization ability and ability to come up with abstract metaphors related to the text, etc., but I don't think your comment is being very fair to him.
