Of course not.
He talks like it wont matter if you have PIC time. It drives me crazy when pilots dispense career advise on that basis (or fairytale). Eventually PIC wont be a "competitive resume" requirement, but until then, the difference will be that guys with turbine PIC will get hired first, followed by the rest. Just because PIC wont matter someday in the distant future, doesn't mean you should plan your career around not getting any.
For people contemplating career moves (of any kind), get your PIC to better position yourself for whatever comes next. You'll always be better off than the schmuck with no PIC.
