I think I know what he meant, but others might put credence in what he actually said ("iPad is the best overall device for reading eBooks.") which is simply not true. Even if such a thing were POSSIBLE to be true for everyone.
And even regarding what you say he meant, I don't think it's true. Those same apps are available free for cheaper, lighter, Android or even PC tablets.

also please Kindle owners cut the BS, you have to strip the DRM off of Library books that do not support mobi(which is basically the majority of them) please stop mis informing and misleading potential buyers that the Kindle works just fine with library books, not every does know how to strip and not everyone wants to strip drm off of books. It's very misleading and in fact getting frustrating.

There is nothing BS, misinforming, or misleading about it. No one is claiming it's supported, or the best choice for everyone, or even a genuine non-issue. In fact, I would probably post to correct someone who implied it was.
I suspect people will go on mentioning it whenever the BS misinforming misleading lies about it not being possible are posted.

So when the other folks stop lying about it being impossible (or even particularly difficult) and instead give the correct info about the options and restrictions, then I'll bet they won't be challenged.
Personally, I don't think I've ever responded to challenge anyone who said something like "You can't do library books on kindle unless...."
