So instead of emulating the style of more successful people, I should instead take style guidance from this guy with a blog because he says that's how things should be? While his opinion may be interesting, I believe we can safely say that the market has spoken. I am not making an appeal to authority here, my point is that the writers he is criticizing are far more successful than he is - and it is not a stretch to connect some of that success to their engaging style of writing.
