So is he right or wrong? Because that's not a negative pressure configuration like you are claiming.
He's right. You should not have exhaust fans at the front of the case. That's an example of a bad airflow setup. The frontmost top fan should be intake in that config. Which would give you more intake fans than exhaust. Which provides positive air pressure that you want.

That doesn't mean more fans are bad for airflow. That simply means 6 fans in the wrong config can be bad for airflow.
