This statement is not completely true. If you look at the Hoob
calculation specified in the draft https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-au
ra-eap-noob-05#section-3.3.2:

Hoob = H(Dir,Vers,Verp,PeerId,Cryptosuites,Dirs,ServerInfo,Cryptos
      uitep,Dirp,[Realm],PeerInfo,0,PKs,Ns,PKp,Np,Noob).

As you can see, the Hoob only confirms the public keys involved in the
ECDHE exchange but not actually use the shared secret derived. Thus, it
does not use the ECDHE output. 

However, from my implementation experience, I think this is the correct
way to calculate Hoob since it allows applications to externalize the
generation of random nonce Noob and the corresponding Hoob. This would
allow deployments to choose how often these values are created. For
example, some display devices might refersh the QR code containing Noob
and Hoob every few minutes.

Shiva
