Agree. These days, if you think you have a methodology that works better than others, you can actually try it / compare it and publish it so that others can replicate and critique your work. Articles like this one, that merely claim they've found the secret sauce, therefore should not carry much weight.
That wasn't the case with 00s agile / Uncle Bob stuff since proving that any of it was helpful was impossible - you just had to believe (and if you didn't believe there was something wrong with you!).
