Redundancy and continuity are interrelated. However, continuity might not be a good thing in certain cases. One example of that would be where you have T or L -Shaped building in high seismic zones. Continuity in such cases could result in significant torsion. The statement posted is a "sweeping statement" and interpretation varies across different cases. There is no right or wrong answer. Thanks.
