They're in Olson's mind.  Petem hasn't any experience or knowledge so Olson is able to snow him deeper than Denver's airport.

All kidding aside, there are some NMC boxes available with a ground lug.  It's there for convenience in connecting stuff.  If the
item needs grounding and the lug is there, use it.  Otherwise, use a wire nut.

In Olson's original gaff on this subject he thought that the lug must always be used.  That is of course absurd.
