There’s not enough resolution at 96dpi to render fonts correctly. You have to make compromises one way or another. Windows snaps to pixel boundaries more strongly, while Mac does no hinting to keep shapes correct. The author, while his opinion should be taken lightly, is trying to get subpixel positioning into Chrome and GTK. This is something positive, and something Windows and MacOS already have. Qt can do it, too, but as of a few years ago KDE/Plasma was actively disabling it because of inconsistencies in Xlib and image rendering backends.
