That's probably just a marketing, as far as I know most of the struts (if not all) will be filled with nitrogen as are gas filled shock absorbers because nitrogen molecules are fairly large so they escape less and nitrogen does not contain oxygen like air would so does not oxidise oil in the struts, on top of that it is cheap and abundant.
