There's a trivial "logical" reason why this could be the case - tautology - if the person you are talking to defines "emotion" as "those mental states which directly motivate behaviour". Which seems like a perfectly good starting place to me.
In other words, this conversation will likely go nowhere until you taboo "emotion" so we can know what work that word does for you.
It wasn't my initial claim, and I have already pointed that seemingly unemotional people motivate themselves somehow.
