He didn't say it was impossible for the lanes to do anything to each other he said the meta supports them not attempting to do anything to each other because it's just easier to try and farm your best and wait for a gank to make a move given the current meta.
Also I believe he was only talking about solo top in particular. Bot and mid aren't "farm fests"-- they can be but that doesn't mean that's necessity (or even necessarily a result of the mechanics when it does happen)
