Maybe, but I think his point is that pad Thai isn't a spicy dish to begin with. So it would be a weird complaint to make in the first place.
I don't pretend to be an expert on thai food, so I can't speak to the "traditional" way to prepare it, but in my experience pass thai being spicy is about 50/50 at restaurants I've been to, and there certainly isn't anything wrong with asking it to be made spicy
If Thai people can throw tuna on waffles, I think you can have your pad Thai however you want.
