JWZ isn't saying that OpenGL ES isn't the good part of OpenGL, he's saying that nobody should ever have removed things from OpenGL in the first place, because he wants to port ancient code to modern systems.

Another way to take it is that ES removes too much from OpenGL.

In any case, I submit to the opinion of experts - my experiments with OpenGL have been simple and, when I attempted anything more complicated, they resulted in much more frustration than learning.
