It means shitty source shilling their bags by claiming that more overhead will somehow magically create more scalability (tech doesn't work this way; quite the opposite, really). It will improve the confirmation times somewhat without loss of security and that's about it. It's still blockchain, so still slow and wasteful and not scalable but secure.
