The way you describe it, it sounds more like a wrap(ish) type thing where you use the taco skin to make a more pocket-like enclosure of the ingredients instead of just "folding" the skin over.
At least that's how I'm reading it.
Maybe he's making more of a quesadilla, where the melted cheese prevents the taco from being opened? (But even then, if the cheese is still warm I don't see what prevents opening the taco to add toppings.)
