The reviewer fails to understand Zed's approach to teaching… His approach is that new developers need to get something that works so the reward of it working is motivating before you explain how/why it works to them. Based on my experiences with my kids I think it's a perfectly valid approach - an led that turns on motivates them to understand why it turns on.
