I think you misinterpreted cortesoft's point, which I could try to make clearer:
"Even if every single bit of payload traffic was encrypted, a huge portion of the traffic actually sent over the wire would still be identical - TCP headers, for one thing, would share a lot of common bits for each packet."
So I think you're in agreement here.
