The inkblot is a good way to demonstrate what a "wrong question" is. The charitable (and literal) reading of his words does not attribute to that comment any particular claim about quantum mechanics.
The QM question, while it is somewhat wrong, is not one to just be dismissed as wrong. An explanation of roughly how the wavefunction works is appropriate.
I support this interpretation. It's a good analogy to demonstrate the concept of a wrong question, full stop.
