I think the title they chose is just misleading (wrong?). Otherwise, their conclusion is

Re:System Hardening in Android 11 on Tuesday June 30, 2020 @02:45PM (#23693349)
Scoped storage is going to kill all the most useful apps that I use that require full access to storage (such as SyncThing). I'm going to keep using Android 10 until I die. Or just switch to Apple, since if they're going to lock everything down, I might as well go with the company that supports their phones longer than two years.
