This is the same thing people miss when they read things like the Agile Manifesto, or about DevOps, or even architectural choices like React's original pitch for one-way data binding - or, dare I say, microservices. You can read these things today, and see flaws - holes in the argument, mistaken assumptions, or misread them as claiming to be superior to things that have been developed since. No - to understand what they are talking about you need to know what was current common knowledge or accepted wisdom in the world when they were written.
