"Reading too much" means that the article is not using "reality" in the philosophical sense, and while it's not "wrong" to think about it, it's also orthogonal to the apparent purpose of the article, which is teaching. I'm not saying whether the reality exists or not. I'm saying that you are not able to learn (about) it without wrapping it in concepts. I doubt there's any such thing as naked, concept-less reality. You can always dig deeper, but if you try, you'll either find more concepts, or the naked unknown, but not the naked real. Saying "it exists" is different, but does not free us of concepts. It is accepting that all we have is this concept, and that there's nothing more real than this concept.
