i think they mean - unless you have signed a proper contract (not just an offer) and there are now consequences for the employer if they let you go for no reason, then you should still stick to your old job

I don’t think that’s the majority of the companies work. You sign an offer, quit your old job on Friday (at the end of the notice), and sign the new contract the next Monday.

So this is some bullshit going on in America? Where I live the contract is signed ahead of time with a specific start date, so this signing an offer (which sounds like nothing more than a pinky promise) and then a contract on the first day is new knowledge to be.

That must be some American thing. You don’t quit until you sign a contract in Europe.

In the UK you quit before you sign your employment contract, but by accepting the job offer, your contract with your new employer has already started, and so you’re protected. They can’t legally pull out without compensating you.

That is how you get exploited. There’s no reason to agree to such a setup.
