This is mostly nonsense. eg : "If you talk to most surgeons, they would think of it as ‘what you cut through'" Surgeons actively use fascia to ease peeling off one structure of the other. They actively use fascia as conduit from an incision to deeper parts of the body; literally, to stick a hand in. Eg: most of the article uses the term "fascia" in away akin to an "organ", i.e.: "fascia is everywhere". That means the author did not fully grasp the concept (if at all). Think of "fascia" (plural) as "sheets". You have many such "sheets" in your body. (I know that term and this concept were mentioned in the article; but not in away that conveyed a useful or fully correct understanding). The existence of fascia has long since been known. Testut and Latarjet extensively described fascial anatomy... in the end of the 18th century! Fascia are known pathways for spread of disease. Fascia cause compartment-syndrome in limbs. etc. It's fascianating :-) how this is now described as something new and almost magical...
