Well, when I read the title, I would have thought the same, but I found the article to have a fairly good motivation behind it. It's fairly vague, though, as all these things are. My own experience, with almost everything in life, is "It depends." There's really no such thing as "One Pithy Aphorism to Rule Them All." In my experience, every philosophy works best as a heuristic, to be adapted to the context, and almost every context is different. That said, we can't be too flexible, or we won't get anything done. I feel that each context needs to have "hard" parameters established and enforced. It's just that, in my experience, we need to respect each individual context, and many folks are spectacularly bad at that. This chap is/was the CTO of Meta, though, so he has some fairly solid background in one particular context.
