Kinda. They mention "snap to grid" which you would probably WANT to use with something like a tiling WM. But windows snap-to-grid is slightly different. You can still snap windows to hidden grid lines that move through existing windows. So you can get an overlap, but I don't think most people do that.
But the author mentions coming from Windows instead of Leenooks, so my guess is they don't know the loveliness of i3. (Though I have to admit... i3 defaults aren't my favorites. And vi keybindings are foreign to my emacs trained fingers. Which is why I just have a script that moves my windows around a Gnome or LXDE desktop.)
