I think he is being a bit facetious, and a bit serious. Nitrogen is a chemical, as is phosphorous and potassium... Under the right circumstances and / or in the right amounts, all are toxic. Richard knows chemicals and fertilizers, but is not an organic gardener.
Myself, I feel that nothing could grow plants better than a big hole filled with properly made compost. I just find making the amounts I need exhausting now that I am older. Bagged stuff just isn't close to the real deal. So, I make do best I can.
I want a compostumbler (The original, big one), but they are not cheap.
