You aren't understanding what's being inferred by that post. It's not that normal riding would cause it to break, but much more likely that poster is hard on his bikes and crashes regularly. Crash impacts are much different than normal riding stresses and not many people engineer frames that will withstand multiple hard impacts. Normal use, yes...crash damage, no.
