It seems reasonably constructive to me. If I were to simplify what they're saying, with a nicer tone, it'd be "if you mean what you say, say what you mean". I like to think of academic journal articles in that regard: the title neatly summarises the abstract (which itself summarises the article), so there's as little ambiguity as possible. I have no opinion on the article either way, might just be something to sit at the back of one's head for next time. I get the feeling HN has two crowds: those who prefer newspaper-style articles and those who prefer academic journal-style articles. Difficult to find the happy medium (sic).
