Maybe you mean that "native widgets" has become just a byword for "following platform conventions"?

I think he means "things tend to either with follow conventions and use native widgets, or they do neither". Users can internalize that dichotomy, and recognize that as soon as they don't see native widgets they probably aren't getting platform conventions either.
Basically that, yes. I don't think people are necessarily conscious of the association, though.
