I think what that means is something like ' a module to turn up the deadliness dial'. They don't have to worry too much about whether that is balanced so much because it is a feature that a certain type of DM will want for a certain type of gritty game. Other DMs can ignore it. But even if you decide to flip that switch it won't cause a problem if you want to have gridless combat or not.
Personally, I enjoyed the video. I hope some of the panic merchants will be calmed somewhat by this, even if for nothing else other than that it is clear that the people behind D&DNext are very sincere, there heart is in exactly the right place, they really really want to make this work and they seem well aware of the magnitude of the challenge and the issues that need to be addressed across the board.
