I don't think that's quite what he's saying, or at least the intended interpretation is a bit more nuanced.
It's more like... suppose you assign tiers of severity to various international policies; A-tier, B-tier, C-tier, etc. Different tiers require different enforcement mechanisms. For example, the international response to a country violating the "United Nations Declaration on Human Cloning" would be different than the international response to a country massively irradiating the atmosphere.
I think he's trying to imply that the proposed policy changes should be A-tier. It isn't a call for individual action or preemptive violence. He's describing a pre-requisite property that any adopted policy must fulfill to have a chance at being successful (according to his analysis of the situation).
On a related note, he is not saying that these policies are likely to happen or are even feasible. He's criticizing the policy proposals in the "Pause Giant AI Experiments" open letter, and describing what he thinks a real policy would have to look like.
