Your right in a sense. He is explaining that using quick detailer as a replacement for washing is not recommended, (something I agree with). The only point I am trying to make is this:
Swirl marks are inevitable. They can be dramatically reduced with the use of a double bucket system and micro fiber mitts and towels. So whether you are washing your car once a week or once every year your going to get swirls. The great thing is that there are products out there that we can use to detail our cars with, that if used correctly (no old college t-shirt applicators) can eliminate the swirls.
Better to wash more often then less. Swirls can be removed, things like baked on brake dust, bird poop, sap, and water spots can leave permanent damage on you cars finish if not removed with frequent washes.
And I don't think you are ignorant.
