Could a hot valve adjustments be done, yes. However the temperature variables would be harder to keep constant for a specific measurement. Cold temps for adjustments are much easier to maintain. Not to mention it makes it easier to work on, avoiding working on hot engine parts is a good enough reason for me.
Sounds like this guy is probably a piece work mechanic. AKA he gets paid per job/vehicle and a valve adjustment doesn't make him any money. The quicker he can get you out the better for him, not necessarily best for you though. A rushed job is usually not a good job!
