This is a ham-fisted attempt to get attention using controversy, and the arguments are so weak they can't even make me mad.

Computing of any kind (including software development) moves around all the time. Sometimes it's more economical to do something with a bunch of servers over the internet, but less privacy preserving. Then user devices become more capable and it's suddenly possible to do everything you need on device and the platform(s) you're targeting all have enough lowest-common-denominator support to make it feasible. On, and on, and on.

This "article" boils down to a myopic view of the industry that is almost solely supported by the solutions very large development teams have had to come up with to handle their human scaling issues.
