I think the point of the article is that people shouldn't rude about CSS because it makes web developers and designers sad. It implies a divide between them and "real" developers who sneer at something they use every day. More of a social critique than a technology critique.

Why is JSON praised, but XML shamed ? Java is old, bulky and slow, but Javascript is the answer to everything ? The debate goes both ways. The correct answer is that all languages, etc. are suitable in the correct scenario, and none should be 'special', whether that be praised above all others, or condemned.
