I think there may be some misunderstanding regarding "classical guitar" vs "acoustic guitar". They are different. The strings on a classical guitar are spaced differently than a regular guitar and classical guitars usually have nylon strings. Also, the fretboard of a classical guitar is quite different, usually flat.

Also, your friend may be referring to classical guitarist being more disciplined in their playing and applied theory.

Best,
