This is a very strange thing to attribute to genetics, certainly not without some reference that supports it-- I could not find any. It seems much more likely to be a product of what you observed in your parents growing up, and perhaps more importantly how you were trained early on in your career.
That statement immediately put me on the defensive to be skeptical of the rest of what the author wrote, which was perhaps justified: the rest of the article was basically the author complaining about organization methods they didn't like and didn't think we're effective even though other people seem to get some value from them. And also that some people seem to brag about their system, which is entirely irrelevant to assessing actual utility. All of this while also coining their own buzz phrases, e.g., "brute linear willfulness".
TLDR: just another person claiming a tool is useless because it's not a tool they like.
