Fair point, wrong place. The article goes out of its way to explain it's bad for people who don't know what they're doing.
However I think there's going to be very few of that kind of people at the xda developers forum :) Or here, for that matter. This message would be better spread at more mainstream sites.

Article author here: you'd be surprised! XDA these days has quite a bit of mainstream outreach, and this article has been getting shared on some socials. Even saw it getting passed around on LinkedIn.
