I appreciate and agree with all of the author's points, but I think that a few really well thought out and explained examples on a simple Github README is worth far more to me from a practical standpoint. I generally will look at the examples, try them out in a stand alone test, spend a few minutes seeing what the quality of the source code is, and then make a decision to go further with it or not. For a smaller project that only has a limited set of features I think most of the author's points are maybe a bit overly picky.
