That's not true though is it. A tubeless tyre will puncture when the tyre itself is breached. When there's a tube in, both the tyre and the tube need to be breached.
Given how relatively fragile a tube is compared to a tyre, I am assuming that if the tyre is breached the tube is also likely to suffer too.
This was the thought that went through my head when I read the above.
I've had a thorn through a tyre, that hasn't breached the latex tube.
