The article is about why we need to decentralize. This is an important issue, and so we need to have a discussion to decide whether or not this is the right course of action. And we have this great resource, an internet comment section, in which to discuss it. And you are a netizen, so you should think about it and add in any useful comments you might have.
Instead you made a comment that derails the conversation off onto a track that it seems to me isn't useful. I see this happen a lot here at HN. There is a lot of useful discussion, but so often there are also people who make comments that derail the discussion, provoke an argument that isn't really relevant. I wish every commenter would first think out what is the basic issue at stake, and avoid making comments that lead to disputes that are off track from what needs to be discussed and decided.
