I certainly agree with that.

But that is not enough to say that anyone who engages in the right kind of practice will get better. My point is just that it's an easy out to say "oh the 10k rule didn't apply here because they weren't practicing right." For that to be an appropriate response, you would need to actually show that the person was capable of that kind of practice in that area but wasn't doing it.
