This is addressed in the first paragraph of the article.

The issue is not solved when you sh into a container for a quick debugging session.

Or when you work in an airtight environment, like in banking.

It is 'solved' when the only computers you connect to is small enough to be be described as 'my computers', which seems like a pretty narrow use case to me.

Depends on the level of customization we are talking about though, sometimes it's way more than just a few configuration files.
