I find this article pretty pointless. People are curious, nothing new.
If you’re tired of explaining to satisfy their curiosity, write a better rationale and hand it out on a pamphlet.

The blog post is a general answer of why sometimes people's curiosity can't be satisfied; pamphlets are so 18th century, after all. Sure, that's what the authors of the Federalist Papers used, but in the 21st century, we use blog posts instead of pamphlets. :-)
I've seen both. The latter seems to sometimes occur with people who have a clear favourite (language|stack|whatever), mostly if they're also somehow overly confident that it's the right choice regardless of your problem.
