I think their point was that WiFi devices can be made cloud-only (or de-facto so by limiting what can be done locally) but that is hard/impossible with ZigBee, so companies will tend to standardize on WiFi. This will mostly be cloud-based, but this will push non-cloud options that direction as well.
