>While there are some parts of this matrix I agree with, I have to say that it seems rather "old school". The matrix seems to assume that all programmers are systems-level programmers working with compiled languages.

No, it just assumes that all kinds of programmers, including front-end programmers, will be much better for knowing those things, which is true.
