It's interesting to read the article with his presentation in mind. From a technical perspective, you should be able to just swap Netflix/Falcor in for Facebook/Relay in this article and have the arguments make about as much sense (They are both graphQL adjacent approaches to APIs that explicitly abandon RESTful principles). However, it seems to me that the article would be way less persuasive or interesting if you did that, because a lot of the intended force of the article relies on the premise "Facebook is evil", rather than the technology at hand. However, using "Facebook is evil" to prove "This thing that Facebook is doing is evil" is way less interesting than showing the latter just from technical details.
