By precision he means how often the test gets the same result, even if it wrong or insensitive (as pointed out by User 166143).
I agree that emphasizing precision is a red flag because there are many things that contribute to precision of a result, including the preparation and handling of samples. Even if the device itself is precise, it doesn't mean the overall result is precise...factors outside of their control are more likely to contribute ot that.
