Yes, the original git-flow post aggregates several widely-held intuitions about git, and then shoves a bunch of fluff in the middle to make it look more appealing to middle management.
I have seen firsthand how the original git-flow post convinced management to move off SVN. In that regard, it's an extremely important work. I've also never seen git-flow implemented exactly as described.
...and frankly, there are better ways to use git anyway. The best git workflows I've seen, at small scale and large, have always been rebase-only.
