I think the point of article is to resist learning Qt while making a game, because you believe it would make you more productive some time later. If you already know Qt and can do lots of work quickly, more power to you. IMO, Qt is powerful technology with good future; getting familiar with it is a fantastic investment for young people in IT, just not so much in game development.

I mean obviously don't write a GUI if a CLI will do, and don't write a CLI if editing text files will do. But if you do need a GUI editor then I think Qt is the fastest/best way to get from zero to working GUI.
