The backstory is that the idea was suggested on GitHub, where it was rudely dismissed as impossible/inappropriate by the article author, who then tried to implement his preferred solution (with the kernel's text rendering team) and months later came round to the solution proposed on GitHub. Then published this blog post crediting it to "a community member".
The backlash was big enough to make the edit we see today, but if they had written credit and a "literature review" from the start it would have made a better summary of the history of terminal text rendering.
