> Considering that the target audience is other designers, why does the presentation matter

I fail to see the logic here. Good design helps people learn easier. It's not like designers have some unique ability to learn equally well no matter how poor the design is.

Well context... the information the author is presenting is simple, right brain stuff. No one with UI experience is going to have a hard time digesting it.

It's not like he used gifs or flashing colors.

Now I kinda want gifs and flashing colors.

That isn't actually true. I think I have UI experience, but I would actually have preferred some mockup examples instead of 1 bit bmp pseudo-thumbnails to represent his ideas. Surely it would be better to show some good user interfaces.
