Not the original commenter, but I believe it's only specific to Meyer's CSS reset and its descendants. Unless you're laboriously redefining every element that you'll be using, the costs far outstrip the benefits of removing everything and starting from scratch.
Plus, there's this tendency to not test for accessibility (I know that a significant portion of websites today aren't accessible for people with disabilities...)
Even ignoring users' concerns (which is to emphasize is plain wrong), depending on the specific reset, it tends to f*** up CSS ordering and makes debugging issues generally harder (since it clutters up everything).
