I don't know what he means by it, by I find that a light gauge pick doesn't give me as good of a tone as a heavier one. With a lighter pick, I hear more of the "friction" between the pick and strings, and less of the actual string tone. The light pick doesn't make the string vibrate as much, so you don't get a full tone. Could be just me though. Others might sound better with light ones. I don't know.
