I cannot provide references (and don't really feel obliged to research them now), but I think this is a misrepresentation of bauhaus.
Bauhaus as a school for design was inherently technical with Werkstätten (workshops) where craftsmen taught the basics in woodworking, and other crafts. In that, Bauhaus continued the Arts&Crafts movement (or the respective German edition of that movement) while applying a 'simplified' visual language.
Of course a Bauhaus alumnus or a Bauhaus teacher wouldn't reach the technical skills of a "Meister" in the crafts, but the connection certainly ran deep.
