   That's not the way I read it. I read it as he doesn't use the contacts   
   app, he puts his contacts somewhere else, presumably somewhere which is   
   not stored or backed up to the cloud. (Although Google Contacts are   
   encrypted in the cloud anyway, so it is only on the phone where apps   
   have permission to read them that it matters).
