I use a standing desk because I have two herniated discs in my lower back, and if I sit for extended periods then I increase the risk of muscle spasms that last over a day. I generally agree with the author's sentiment - if you don't need a standing desk then don't get one. But for crying out loud, don't write some authoritative-sounding Medium post about what you should do instead that cites questionable web sites and links to a random video of a Russian lady doing squats.
