as far as I can tell, the author of this blog post would like to increase his deal flow by arguing that volunteers should do his work for him, and send vetted deals his way (after doing due diligence).

I only gave it a cursory reading though! Thoughts on my take?

Not the point of the post at all. The author wrote this as advice to people who want to break into VC, which is a common question he receives, per the article.

Spec work in an attempt to get a job in venture capital.
