So, this is what he told me: unless I'm going to be flying 3 times/week
at least, getting my instrument ticket is a waste and possibly dangerous
as well. He thinks I'll be more likely to end up dead with it than
without it. (Logic being, obviously, that the ticket will give me such
a sense of security that I won't be afraid of hard IMC even when I'm not
current enough to handle it.)

In other words, the less you know, the safer a pilot you will be.

It seems his comments imply that you have/will have poor judgement, in
order to be true. That is probably more a commentary on him than on you.
