Doubtful. He makes it pretty clear what he is saying:

To paraphrase a bit, the sample size is to small to be really meaningful. Nothing more, nothing less.

He never mentions or implies any reliability issues with the Z. And yes, I know he had tons of problems with his, but he makes no mention of it. He comments only on the sample size and the sampling methodology. Not the reliability of the Z.
