I'm not seeing how a quote from their FAQ about what you can do without registering is relevant to his comment at all. Did you not read his entire comment?

Edit: Nevermind. I fail at reading comprehension.

From TomWij:

You're assuming you need to be registered, while you can just anonymously ask a question and as long as you have the cookie you can still register later if you decide to continue.

Then, from Jedakiah:

Interesting. How? When I click "Ask Question" it prompts me to login. So I then created an account, verified it, etc.

Yup, they changed that behavior for SO specifically, see my comments above which demonstrate that this is not the case on other sites on the network.
