Probably because it's mostly fixed in Android ICS, as is slyly stated at the very end of the article:

"We hope that browser developers will solve this problem in future releases by firing click events immediately when zooming is disabled on the website (using the viewport meta tag). In fact, this is already the case with the Gingerbread Android Browser."

Is it really fixed in ICS? Last time I tried my test case with my ICS phone it was still happening. Further, the iPhone wasn't exhibiting the ghost click behavior.

I really wish Google would make the Android browser blow mobile Safari out of the water. It'd be good for their business. As someone who used to do mobile web development full time, Android felt like IE 6/7 half the time.

I say this as an Android user.
