This article's posting on HN is possibly inspired by the recent post about the unreasonable uses of bubble sort [0] as it is a counterintuitive belief in CS that an inefficient algorithm could ever be useful. I am pretty sure that there are other beliefs in the computing world that are also common and completely false, such as "Deleting a file removes the data from the drive" or "Twice the number of cores working on a task means the process will finish twice as quickly."
