Agree 100% that it's bikers that pay the price when there is a failure to pay attention to blind spots, but it goes both ways. The way I read his comment was that it's up to the biker to stay out of other vehicles blind spots, for their own good. When I'm on the bike I do not camp out in other vehicle's blind spots because I do not trust them to check it before changing lanes. I either accelerate to get in front of them or stay behind them. It wouldn't matter to me who wasn't paying attention to their blind spot if I was dead.
