I think in this case, the comment has to be taken in the context of the recipe. While a large, irregular and open crumb is certainly desirable for many breads, I think MJ was going for a fine regular denser crumb with this particular sandwich bread recipe. But each bread and each baker certainly is looking for something different with each recipe and I think that is what makes the world of bread baking such a fun and diverse place to be! Happy Baking!
