It isn't terrible advice, but it isn't good advice either. X.509's entire trust model is based on MITM. There is nothing wrong with a self signed certificate if all you want to do is encrypt on the wire.
The visible UI of a self-signed is admittedly terrible. The invisible UI of the Certificate Authority system is an outright catastrophe.
