Yes, but Diana had special abilities. She knew about Z before it happened, and she walked true dimensions. That Diana could see the “other Grimms” doesn’t mean it wasn’t just a visualization of Nick getting connected to the powers of his Grimm ancestors.

Of course you wouldn't. But the fact you're even questioning it shows that you yourself are wondering about their so called statement.
I do question the statement, because it's not logical. It's contradictory. I also wonder exactly what strengths Nick has come away with. What exactly is a "post-modern" grimm and what deepening purpose does Nick gain?
I don't see any hidden strengths in Nick nor do I see a deepening purpose. To me, the only takeaways in this is that the writers are going against their own storyline by stating Nick may or may not have had ghostly help in the forms of Marie and Kelly so he could defeat Z, and he becomes the owner of a talisman that enables him to get whatever he wants.
That statment was ambiguous.
A post-modern Grimm is a Grimm that doesn’t kill all Wesen he encounters but see them as individuals and even become friends and create strong personal connections with some of them. Nick’s purpose as a Grimm was to keep the world safe from Wesen, which is what he did when he killed Z. We saw the “other side” (Where the Wild Things Were), where Z had control and Wesen dominated the world. Nick's love for Adalind, his son and his friends were what made him get in touch with his Grimm strength. It was only when he was willing to do anything to get them back he found the strength he needed to defeat Z and save the world.
