He is saying telegram clients are open-source AND verifiable so you can prove the app store is giving the pushed source.
And there is no point of open-sourcing the server because it doesn't allow you to prove more about the encryption and you can't prove the published source matches reality.
Obviously there are business/brand reasons as well, but I think Telegram is being honest here.
