Agree with everything here except point 4. Think what he was saying is sites should use feature detection and not browser sniffing to determine whether to serve content. Apart from that though, spot on. Apple have done just as much as Google, if not more, to push newer web standards onwards.

The problem is that he said using UA sniffing is wrong. Not only is it not "wrong"--it's damn useful in certain cases and can be a valuable part of a feature detection solution.
