YES: each cut and paste for that section ( or duplicate) the "starting point of that selection " for that section CAN be snapped to the grid. However NO: that does not automatically mean that the start of music in that selection is snapped to grid , it can still be in front of or behind the beat . And even if the start of the music is in fact snapped to the grid/beat that does not mean that the rest of the music in that section is "quantized ". If there are timing anomalies in that section they are not "quantized" to the grid/beat ,,,, they are simply duplicated with whatever variance from the grid (beat) they were recorded at.

Yes, I know about cutting and pasting,
however in this video what he is cutting and pasting - or copying and pasting - or cutting and snapping to grid - are small areas that have
already been quantized via beat detective (see starting around 4:15 and to the point where he talks about
pocketing left over imperfections in timing). You can hear the results as goes along.
The guy knows his way around terminology, software and a DAW. It was fun watching him.
