Ooof...re-reading my comment, I can certainly see your interpretation.

It definitely was not my intent to paint the author of the article as the person who made that quote.

Unfortunately, I can't edit my comment now.

I was going to not read the whole thing based on your comment, but now I'm reassured

I also regularly give a quick peek to the comments sections before reading the article in order to figure out whether I should bother reading.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't

I was also put off from the article by the quote, but that's on me, not you. The article was great and I agree with everything in it.
