Whatever gave you that idea? According to his book and Jef's own website he was one of the early spokesmen of WYSIWYG. He even invented drag'n'drop - building on other's design ideas.
What he IS opposing is the way current GUIs use the mouse and modes - even alot of his own designs from the time when he was working for Apple.
