I understood it to mean: he often sees players limping with these hands just because they have the button. Doing this is a mistake. It would also be a mistake to limp with these hands from other positions, but he doesn't see players doing that so often.

He is talking about hands like J5s, 38s, T4o.

But why the button? Is he implying that hands like K8s are safer to play in raised pots against 2 or less opponents? Since in an unraised pot, people are less likely to go broke with non-nut hands, so stuff like K8s or smaller straights end up being the 2nd best hand too often?
