Saying it means we can't make the kind-mundane distinction at least not by using those terms. I agree that it isn't perfect terminology, because what's on the kind end in one situation might in other situations be on the mundane end, and vice-versa. Whether or not there are 'absolute mundanes' isn't really important - it's the mixing of the levels in a single {lo}-phrase that causes the problems.
