I agree, assuming that he is talking about a small number of sending
processes.

If, on the other hand, he is talking about a small number of
receiving processes, then it is very well possible that a sending
process times out while it is waiting for a receiving process to
become available.

I'm not sure that he is using Postfix terminology correctly.
