He means that basing your love of music solely on technical skill alone is ridiculous. In that scenario, all you're doing is loving an equation, not the sum.

If you knew a band who was the most technically skilled garbage can players in the entire world, would they be the most musical? Would they do what good music does to you?

Music is its whole, and everything included in it.
Music is not defined ONLY by how well people play it. More than technical skill goes into creating good music.
