There is a major flaw in his argument. The content before it hits M-scaler is already dithered. M-scaler processes that data and to avoid quantization error, adds another layer of noise. In that regard, it degrades the signal to noise ratio of the system regardless of which form of dither it uses.
In other words, there is no free lunch here. The incurred loss of signal to noise ratio better be accompanied with higher fidelity which sadly, we don't have here.
That aside, his assertion is wrong about superiority of Gaussian noise relative to Triangular Dither. Here is the paper that is considered the bible of dither:

As you see, triangular dither is superior in both performance and level of noise it adds to the system. This is why it has become the de facto standard in digital audio processing.
As you see at the bottom, the reason to use Gaussian is because it is simpler/cheaper to implement. Not that it is better. In a $6,000 device, I expect the better dither to be used, than the cheaper one that raises the noise floor yet again.
