I think there's a risk in this kind of article.
It's not that the article is wrong. It's probably accurate that there can be pathological degrees of psychological safety, where there is simply no accountability.
But the proponents of reduced psychological safety ("tough love"/"the beatings will continue until morale improves" types) need little encouragement to take things too far.
And the article is probably mistaken to not consider accountability as a mostly separate dimension from psychological safety. You can have high or low accountability alongside high or low psychological safety.
