I agree with you, they contradicted themselves...
I think they probably tried to express that it is not worth to buy STEEM if you can buy coins like BTC and XRP so undervalued. They are probably afraid of STEEM dropping below $1 and potentially lose a lot of value, that´s why they need STEEM to be at $2+ to be classified with a B.
DEEPLY undervalued is what we like to hear, especially if we still have some money in the bank ready to spend in crypto.
