That was his opinion, and i can definitely see arguments for and against that, but it really revolves around fundamental ideas of gameplay design. If you design software around a given control scheme, then admitting other schemes would be a sign of defeat, to a point.
In Other M's case it would certainly alter the game fundamentally, as you can see how entire elements of the game were designed with the limitations in mind, but then with games like Mario Kart, while you definitely see a different experience going back to traditional controls, its not fundamentally opposed.
There's the question of whether you would call this good game design or bad game design, that you're limiting your vision based on the interface, or that you're able to custom-mold a vision to fit a given interface like a glove.
I would say its a good thing, but it's definitely a matter of debate.
