There's a lot wrong with this article.
The matrix feels really rather cargo-culty to me. If deployment is pushing one file then use scp. If it's coordinating a world wide fleet of servers, use something more sophisticated.
I find it funny that we've seen a "You're not Google" article today, and then this gets posted.
At the end of the day, as long as you've cut out as many manual steps as you can, without being stupid about it (don't spend two weeks creating an all singing all dancing deployment pipeline for a microsite that's going away in three weeks), you should be happy with how you're doing things, regarding deployment. If that's running scripts, so be it.

Agreed. And critically, if you can stay in a world where scp deployment (or something comparably simple) is working well, that's a good thing.
