I agree it's quite a logical leap to conclude that everybody who identifies as "None of the Above" when asked which religion they identify with, is an atheist.
Also, there's no link to any study the guy is referencing. When I went to search for the study I couldn't find it on the study listed, GSS Data Explorer.
I did find a news article that says "Nones are now as big as Evangelicals, Catholics in the US"
https://religionnews.com/2019/03/21/nones-now-as-big-as-evangelicals-catholics-in-the-us/From what I've read, NONEs are mostly, "Spiritual But Not Religious"
"Those who claim “no religion” are not inherently atheists or agnostics: A 2017 Pew Research survey found that only 22 percent of “nones” listed not believing in God as the most important reason for their lack of religious affiliation."
