For some reason I don't think that's what he meant. Certainly we need a way to stop delete wars. I protect blank pages occasionally. The way he said it makes it sound like they're doing it just to keep people from ever re-creating it, after an afd.
The easiest way to stop delete wars would be to desysop the admins who get involved in them. I'm not sure why people do it (protect blank pages), all I know is it helps make it damn near impossible to collect deleted pages so they can be distributed on another site. From what I gather legitimate speedy deletion has been expanded beyond just nonsense pages as well, so without any support from an admin or a developer I'd be fighting a losing battle.
