No they are saying that since 0% false positives is not possible we still need to browse the spam folder which defeats the whole point.
If there is a subset of messages for which we can be 100% then these messages don't need to be stored.

Checking the spam folder generally requires little attention and can be scheduled for when I'm tired/distracted/whatever.
