The accepted answer to this question nailed it. Btw. this post should be labelled "Why a boss should not always listen to his junior programmers" :)
At least from the tidbits of conversation given in that post, it sounds like his boss is being responsible, and trying to evaluate the risk of the various possibilities.
[The questioner, on the other hand, sounds very inexperienced, and seems to have latched onto the (dubious) label "NIH" simply because they know it sounds bad...]
