Surely there's something that hits its wall at death, if it hasn't already found it in itself to stop short of its own accord. Perhaps Jenkinson feels it necessary to tell people "everything hits a wall", because he unconsciously sees the alternative message as being "nothing you're actually attached to hits a wall, just some things you can safely blithely tell yourself you already don't care about and go on without having to change anything about yourself".
Then, of course, there's the problem of where we might be encountering Jenkinson with respect to his initiation of the nadir or whatever. If someone is under a carefully-managed maya where they think the responsible thing to do is "admit" the limitations of blank materiality, and try to reason forward from that premise as to what chimerical hopes it makes the world better to tell people not to invest any resources or hope into, of course they're going to say things like that.
I can't really speculate usefully beyond that point since I haven't read anything by him.
