I kind of agree with the author. Have I been engineer in Yahoo, I would ask myself question "Why is he paid so much, where we could do it in house better and spend this money on bonuses for employees?". Especially given that fact, that Summly doesn't even own this technology just licences it from SRI. The only explanation I see, is that what Yahoo actually really bought is the great licensing deal (flat fee? exclusivity?).
