If you read their terms and conditions they say it's not a backup system as well.

People really need to read the SLAs etc.

I think you might have missed the point of what the author was saying. Check out the screenshot he posted:

Notice it says that your files are "automatically backed up to the cloud"?

Yes i saw that. It's true, but its not a substitute for a backup setvice. If it was, they wouldn't have the discontinuation of service and disclaimers in their T&C.

But you can understand how people could confuse "automatically backed up" and 'automatic backup', right?
