What NYU says:

Please keep in mind that you won’t be able to compare financial aid packages from other schools if you apply early decision. Do not feel pressure to apply early decision if finances are a concern.

Exactly. The subtext here is, expect to pay what the Net Price Calculator projects. If you’re not 100% okay with that price, do not apply ED. The “back out if the finances don’t work” provision is not meant to encourage applications where a financial aid miracle would have to occur for the ED offer to be accepted.
