This would happen maybe in one out of a hundred cases if at all, making the statement blatantly false.
How can I trust that anything the author says will be minimally rigorous about a topic as complex as cognition when they’re making such outlandish claims, even if they’re being facetious?
That caught my eye as well. I've been developing for 14 years with headphones on for 95% of the time. I don't think I've ever had the problem of naming something based on the music I'm listening to. I guess people are rather different and for some it might be a genuine problem, it's just really surprising for me :)
