I hope this is satire, Irish didn't "make up" the letter Ó, it was the standard historical form but was converted into O' when the names were anglicized.
Frankly his advise about sanitizers seems equally suspect, I've processed a lot of complex scientific abstracts using html5lib and Bleach without any mangling like he describes. He must be using very naive sanitizers.
