The guy tried to do a nice clean job with botched instruction. He was told to use BX (metal shielded) cable, which will not bend at sharp angles without breaking the outer shield. He added the boxes to make connections keeping the BX straight and neat.
You can run wire in a thousand junction boxes but there is no requirement to make a splice in any of them, although it will look like crap and cost like h***.
Stop second guessing him and think about what you really want. Stop listening to innuendo and hearsay, get professional advice ,then you'll get what you want and get it done correctly.
Next time ask him to run 12Ga. romex in EMT then you'll get a line in code rated for 20 amps and the shielded wire you want. (By the way if the romex is to be run outside a wall it is required to be run in metal conduit to protect it.)
