I think I have a different definition of misled than people defending the blog author here.
The way people defending the blog author use the term is as if the author is deliberately deceiving people for their gain. i.e. cynicism. That is not even remotely the case for anyone who read the book.
I also do not agree that it is misleading to provide general guidelines/recommendations and potential consequences. Not a single guideline was surprising or different than common sense. One has to read between the lines of their experiences and the facts presented. (i.e. if you ever worked at a startup or are a parent you'd have experience of lack of sleep and health issues)

That is not even remotely the case for anyone who read the book. The author is deceiving people through sloppy science, superificial verification and editing, and sensenationalist/alarmist key points, to create a catchy "clickbait" book and sell for his gain.
