No. By removing the mirror-prism system as mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lenses have, you can bring the lens a lot closer to the sensor which opens up design choices that couldn't happen during the SLR or DSLR era. That's exactly what the article is describing.
The article just does a fairly subtle job of explaining it:
>These new lenses and lens mounts differ in one special way from previous generations. They aren’t limited by the design of the camera. The distance between the sensor and lens can be whatever the manufacturer wants it to be for the best results. With that limitation out of the way, lenses can embrace the advantages of rangefinder lenses, without their disadvantages.
That being said its going to be a while before I declare DSLRs dead, because the great majority of people will be extraordinarily well served by a modern SLR, and I buy all my camera equipment used anyways.
