  That pretty much sums it up. The 8.1 changes, so far as I can tell, are bugfix/stability changes. The article feels like click-bait to me. The little blurb on zdnet about the author helped me better understand where he's coming from: Matt Baxter-Reynolds is a mobile software development consultant and technology sociologist based in the UK. His next book, "Death of the PC" is out in September.
