 No he's not, he is pointing out that cables made to spec for
USB-2.0 may not be able to carry more than 0.5A because they don't have to
and therefore will likely cause problems if used to power a Pi no matter
how good the supply. In this he is quite correct - although it took me a
while to grok the point he's making.
