I don't think this means there will be only one patch... I think it means that once they release the patch, there won't be coming back, and they don't want to forget some minor things in the release because of the rush - so, while there might bye a '1.3' someday, there won't be a '1.2.1' patch...(or so I hope...)
You may be right, perhaps I was being too cynical in my interpretation of what he said. Nonetheless, I'm sure when he says the QA process is "exhaustive", that means "expensive" to the accountants, so the powers that be probably won't be too happy about having to do it more than once. If this patch creates new bugs, I would hope they'd at least fix those, but I doubt we'll see any more real improvements to gameplay after this patch is released. Meaning that they might as well take as long as they need to get as many improvements in there as they can.
