Yeah, I think this is fair criticism, and I definitely felt the pointedness in the tone as well.

On the overly-literal / narrow thing, I think thats the culture around evaluating predictions overall. Like, all those posts around christmas where people make predictions and evaluate how last year went. The rigor is the norm.

I'm not familiar with the culture, but that sounds reasonable.

I'll quibble with the term rigor. I think the article contains the strictness that word implies, but not the thoroughness.
