As the author of that post says it greatly reduces the login attempts. It has been my experience as well.

An analogy with a house it would be like making a brick wall behind your front door and making a new door on the side of the house.

Sure, it would not change significantly the time for a determined thief wanting your house specifically,.

However moving the door would do wonders against some punk with a bunch of keys who runs around trying them on all neighborhood doors.

You still have to make sure you have a good lock and door.
