I think he is referring to collateral sprawl. Meaning, that density could be assumed to relatively increase property values and increase demand for support infrastructure. Businesses and people seek out low-priced space within the region. So, a high density area will spur unintended sprawl which might lead to other issues.

But businesses seeking out low cost areas is probably unavoidable. You could build a super dense city, but a limited population is going to want to live there - people with kids, etc. Unless you’re willing to force them to live in a city, some people are going to seek out low cost areas and be a source of employees for the companies doing the same.
