You missed the point. The point is, a new hire being asked to use a new version control software likely doesn't know whether the tool is more like hg or more like source depot. It takes times to figure out that. So they need to reserve judgement.
Not what I got out of that comment, but I fully agree with your take on new hires not being able to tell whether an unfamiliar version control piece of software is good or bad until they get at least somewhat familiar with it.
