I do think swimmers TRAIN harder than marathoners, but there is no need to oversell it with a statement like this.
Water is much more forgiving than pavement but my distance running friends do put in a ton of training time as well, probably as much as almost all of my swim friends.
I watched Lochte do a full workout between sessions on Sunday and then come back and rip a great 200 IM last night. So, call it dumb or whatever, but the best in the world don't really have to justify their training routines.
