It's just PR. He was excited about doing the Sisters arc and to do it properly to meet the expectation of the manga fans. He's excited about doing this arc because it's more in tone with the first season. (He also said he was excited about adapting some of the arcs and characters in the future, if he gets the chance.) He has to seem excited about everything because he wants to keep as many fans of the first anime season as happy as possible. What do you expect him to say?

It doesn't change the fact that he didn't write this arc, and he's certainly not responsible for whatever small transgressions and details there are in the script that don't align exactly with the original source. This is why the production committee hired writers, and the Dengeki editors work with them on the script. The director doesn't have the time to be getting into the weeds that much.
