I disagree, the meat of the article isn't about software bugs, it is about the current state of academia, and specifically academic research on software. The problem stated is that instead of being able to find widely cited or good papers, any amount of research involves trudging through hundreds of bad, off topic, outdated, unrelated, or otherwise useless papers, just to get an idea of what is being talked about in the field. And even when getting there, what you find may be completely non-practically relevant in the end.
