Hmmm...  I don't know enough to answer either way, but now I'm interested.
When I read it I assumed that it was because gpg is essentially the same
as pgp, particularly in comparison to a completely different operation
like S/MIME.  I think he mentions OpenPGP because of its roots in PGP
(or, you might say, vice versa).
