Only in relation to one bullet point out of four, requirements gathering.
That particular bullet point is perhaps the most disturbing flaw in the article, I might add. All the projects that I've seen go off the rails are the results of -poor- requirements gathering.
Granted, poor requirements gathering seems to be the rule more than the exception, I have worked on plenty of projects that had excellent requirements that went extremely well, even with the usual set of unexpected scope changes.
