Vuk,
I believe the saleman's party had a copy of SpectreRF. That's why I don't think the comparision was fair. They are HB experts. Based on their misunderstanding of other SpectreRF features, I can only assume they are also not experts at simulating phase noise with SpectreRF.
As for averaging the ripple, I think he was trying to say that HB assessed phase noise of the VCO over a time long enough to average over the low frequency ripple, while SpectreRF only averaged over one cycle of the VCO. Of course, I may be mis-stating his claim. He was pretty vague at this depth.
