but I think the author's point holds up under your criticism.

he's right that 99% of the time when you are looking at your account, you want the current trip. Take the 90% of the dashboard junk dedicated to "you might need this, so we're showing you just in case", and wrap it in a single, exposable "junk drawer" interface.

Or at the very least, call out the main content with styling, and make the junk more muted.

He calls this "dashboard ambush", but it's just as accurately characterized as a signal:noise problem. All the extraneous functionality is noise to 99% of use cases.
