The article is not actually about desktop Linux. The author tries to draw an analogy, it does not actually matter much whether it resonates.
The article boils down to: using an iPad for your day to day tasks is possible but so restrictive you might wonder why people would try to. Much like many people try (tried) to use Linux for day to day tasks and found it is (was) too restrictive.
I myself can't argue. My current main os is NixOS and I've found it usable but as a newbie much more restrictive than for example Ubuntu or Arch. Would I recommend it? Would you like to use the next generation of more perfect operating systems? Only if you like a bit of a challenge..
