No the point in article is "OK" and "Cancel" were fairly standardized buttons for ANY general action the user might initiate -- that requires a confirmation. In certain situations where the action itself is "Cancel my Order" or "Cancel Job" etc ... then the button labelled "Cancel" can cause confusion through a double negative. In other routine instances ... Cancel was a fairly standard and universally understood option to back out of an action -- across scenarios and across applications. Similarly OK to confirm the intended action.
