That makes no sense at all. That would mean that junction boxes must be
on the surface of the wall (how 'bout that exposed Romex?) and in the
basement, I guess.

Concealed in a wall and recessed are two different things. They don't
want buried boxes.

The attic reference is very odd. Maybe they're assuming an inaccesible
attic?

There are some other bizarro factoids in that PDF file. Like how the
roughing-in inspection has to be done with all insulation off, what the
heck can that mean?

Wall insulation, primarily. The inspector prefers to see exposed runs
and connections.
