That's true, but wouldn't make for an interesting blog post.

Yes, I'm sure the author could go register [email protected], but it's really a post about incorrect assumptions.

This blog should really be understood as another in the "falsehoods programmers believe about..." series.

Surely you can buy a car without any email address.

...oh, this was online only. Well there's your problem.
