No, the article is essentially pointing out that the 12th root of two to the seventh power is really close to 1.5, whereas the comment you're replying to is saying that if you raise 1.5 to the 12th power, you get really close to a power of 2. The former is more interesting when it comes to how music works psychoacoustically: the interval of a perfect fifth is fundamental to almost all music. Whereas the "circle of fifths" is more of a convenience that makes it easier to think about keys. Few songs would ever traverse the whole circle and come back to where it started, and if you stick with strict just intonation there is no circle of fifths anyways. (Maybe you could better call it a "spiral of fifths" or something.)
