I'm not a maintainer, but I'll tell you what I have to say anyway :)
I think that the article is fundamentally misguided, presuming that a
monoculture is a good thing, and further presuming that having to
learn how to use a tool is a *bad* thing. I could expand upon both
these points at length, but I'll leave that as an exercise for the
thoughtful reader :)
