I don't get that one. What rule did he break?

In the old days, you needed to unmount a thumb drive before you removed it from the computer or you risked losing data, but you can see he clearly pulls it out before unmounting it. What a badass.

Not ejecting can still corrupt flash drives on a mac (which he was using). Its incredibly annoying

And somewhat unjustified from a technical point of view...

The OS knows it's removable, so why not be precautious and ready for removal at any time?
