If it's the Good Eat eps where he debunks searing sealing in juices, then I've seen it. And he's not actually suggesting you don't sear. He's simply proving that the act of searing doesn't seal in juices and in fact causes more moisture loss than not searing.
But again, searing isn't for moisture retention or anything else besides flavor and maybe texture.
If you don't want to sear, that's a little weird but whatever. Every chef in the world, AB included, sears their steaks because it means a better steak.
