I have had back a few comments that go after the writer of the linked piece for his choice of examples or how he uses them.

That's not what this is about. Man gets tripped up by some of the very things he points out? Fine; it doesn't change the utility of the tools and serves as a good example of just how insidious failure of clarity can be. We tend to edit the world we see into the one we expect to see even when we are trying not to; learn from that, and move on
