I think it's that MinWin is supposed to be the base from wich to develop new kernels for future Windows OS. It would not be a complete kernel by itself.

"[MinWin] is running in 40MB of memory, a lot less than the 2GB that you're used to"

Thus, as an example, those "2GB" could've been the product of working on the "40MB" base.
