I suspect they're thinking about port forwarding. For another torrent to connect inbound to you, you need to have a port open for inbound connections and most VPNs don't provide this as standard.
But you can still torrent if you don't have ports... But you can only initiate outbound connections to other peers. And it works two way... Those peers you connected to can request data from you without problem.
However if there are too many peers without ports then it becomes a problem because no-one can successfully connect with each other.
