I don't care that much either way about the re-design, however, it seems kind of dumb to tick off your users on purpose. We are talking about basic usability here, not whether a luxury sports car that less than 1% of the population owns during their mid-life crisis has a trunk.

The blogger says that Facebooks usibility goal is different than what users can see so their opinions are short sighted. Facebook is going through a design change in order to build new, non-user, growth. Facebook is becoming more usable for a different market, namely businesses. It isn't on purpose, it's a side-effect, or so the theory goes. The analogy you refer to was fine. It made a point and was short.
