I mostly agree, but I also want to point out a piece that the author does not discuss: You shouldn't just make deployments frictionless, all else being equal, you should also make them often. If you do deploy often, the code deltas between two deployments are smaller, and so it's often much easier to pin down the source of bugs.

Smaller and more frequent release deltas are the real source of systemic improvement; CD is just a methodology for facilitating this.
