I think this is a linguistic misunderstanding - "Not at all" is a common and 
polite English way of saying "you're welcome" or "don't mention it" - 
basically a standard response to "thank you".

There's as much point in interpreting the phrase literally as there is with 
"how do you do?"

I think that is a very unfriendly and unnecessary comment.
