There is absolutely a third option between "Coeliac" and "can eat gluten without any unsavory symptoms". Even a doctor may be unable to diagnose Coeliac disease via blood test but able to diagnose a sensitivity to gluten (via similar tests) that has a different cause (Coeliac is not the only explanation).
I understand the frustration of dealing with people who are self-diagnosed (it's unreliable, and comes with its own host of caveats and questions), but I'd refrain from drawing conclusions like this without actually knowing the person's history.
