Among the many bad arguments this article makes, the most glaring to me is assuming that the "distilled version" of Newton is superior to his original works. Little known fact: Newton had profound insights in the philosophy of science, predicting, among other things, computational complexity,a and if these parts of his thought were heeded, maybe the "Enlightenment" wouldn't have made the terrible mistake of thinking (or willing) the world as a linear, rational place (it isn't.)
