Pro Tools Cutting Corners?

[Royal Yaksman]

So the attached video is a little dumb. Who would intentionally go that far above clipping? But I have to say he might have a point when he asks what else have they cut corners on? Considering Pro Tools touted that one of its improvements was 32 bit float and from the looks of this, they might be lying? I mean it would make more sense if the plugin was disabled or the sound just cut out, perhaps with the reasoning of protecting connected outboard gear. But to buzz into distortion seems to indicate that 32 bit float headroom is not really there.
