The standard LED lights were rated poor by the IIHS, so that may be what he is referring to.

The benefit of the lasers are for high beams, the laser light's LED's are different than the standard and rated better.
Gotcha, makes sense! Thank you for the info - constantly learning and appreciate your contributions!
