I co-founded Dev Bootcamp where I was responsible for training our teachers and designing our curriculum. I 1000% endorse the article. The author isn't suggesting students will "magically figure it out". He's helping them develop the muscles they need to articulate, build, and refine their own mental models. You can get students making CS-relevant predictions without them having ever seen a single line of code in their lives within the first hour. Students will enter the world of programming with an orientation that enables them to learn 10x faster, which is even more critical in the coding bootcamp context.
