No. They were just wrong. They also only said that after they said and hoped you forgot that the entire internet would run on Ethereum.

are you suggesting the ETH people lied to me when they said the entire rails of future finance would be built on ethereum?

I don't believe so. They are using a lot of ethereum design, I think, but not actually running on ethereum:

Tempo blocks extend the Ethereum block format in multiple ways: there are new header fields to account for payment lanes and shared gas accounting, and system transactions are added to the block body for the fee AMM and other protocol operations. This specification contains all the modifications to the block format. 

Interestingly, I found this about running a "validator node":
