You can have 100% code coverage, and still not be testing anything. Unless you're testing thoroughly the right parts, they're a false sense of security.

I agree with that. Its just an (imperfect) proxy measure of the depth / extent of unit testing. Asking how much code coverage is likely to give a better reflection of the effort behind unit testing rather than just a - "have you done unit testing".
