If you have specific feedback about areas that need improvement, I'm certain the blog author would love to hear them. Ranting without justification isn't likely to solve anything.

I have worked on and used selinux, rsbac, smack and others, there is no area to improve on rbac itself isn't usable or even secure compared to a capability based system like capsicum.

RBAC is a capability-based system, so I think you're confused.

Unless of course you're basing your claims on a definition of "capabilities" that limits that application specifically to capsicum.

I would encourage you to read more about RBAC as it is not as limited as you seem to be implying.
