Nice writeup. I think that the final message to be specialized is great, and I'd underline that this should come after you proved that you master the "general knowledge". This is clearly true for the author, he can specialize on 3d graphics after 3y web+mobile dev at Google and 3y in a startup, but the assumption that one could start specializing in 3d graphics from 0 imo is wrong. All great painters were highly specialized, but all of them mastered the "general skills" in painting before taking their art to another level.
