Bad faith argument that could only be made by not reading further into the article or cutting the quote off before it answers the exact question/argument posed here.
The article itself was in fact delightful once I zoomed out a bunch.
Have you seen cases where timing mattered more than the message itself?

A bold first sentence that draws you in. A steering second sentence to set you further down the path. A third sentence that tantalizes and alludes to content to follow.
Following is an initial explanatory paragraph. It serves to help back up the previous paragraphs, and start to ground it in more applicable information. Expectations are set, and potential skepticism is addressed. A link to prior art is supplied, to provide additional context.
There is then a paragraph that serves as a segue. It connects the high-level concepts and begins to draw them down the realm of the practical.
This paragraph begins to answer the questions in the reader’s mind that the segue paragraph introduced. It begins with level-setting. Certain key concepts are bolded to accommodate people who skim. Following that is supplying more context, albeit still at a relatively high level.
A short sentence isolated as its own paragraph to drive attention and impact.
The following paragraph begins to dive into particulars. It introduces a new concept related to the subsection’s topic at-hand, careful to stay focused to help the reader understand the larger goal you’re driving towards.
A follow-up paragraph at the end of a subsection may allude to the author‘s opinions or larger thoughts about the topic. It also sets up the next subsection.
The next concept is addressed, getting more technical as the reader becomes more acclimated. A link to a peer resource is threaded in as an appeal to authority, to help reinforce confidence in the author.
An ordered list is used to:
There might then be another follow-up paragraph. This one might contain a sentence with an em dash—indicative of a trailing thought that is still topically related.
This section works deeper into the technical topic. It dispenses with reasoning and analogies and discusses practical specifics.
A piece of code that translates the practical specifics into language a computer can be instructed with. Comments are supplied to help facilitate understanding.
We break out of the depth of the deeper subheading’s content and return to a level higher. This is a new concept, yet still living under the umbrella of the overall topic at-hand.
The format of this new concept mirrors the structure of the previous section. This predictability helps with reading flow and answering the reader’s unspoken expectations.
This subsection takes each of the previous points raised and reinforces their need to be sequentially discussed. It then explicitly confirms the case the rest of the content has been implicitly building, that this topic was worth breaking down to better appreciate as a holistic whole.
Some established trust is cashed in. The author is allowed some space to wax philosophical about larger implications, or discuss their feelings on the matter.
The bold first sentence is revisited now that the reader has completed learning about the concept being discussed. A subsequent sentence explicitly ties the nuance the rest of the content discusses to the overall point.
The reader is thanked, and the content ends.
