I don't know why people are downvoting you. I think you're right. I agree with his general point (I expanded a bit on that here [1]), and I also agree that people often overlook that general point since it is so convenient to do so. But otherwise, the specific examples he wrote (and the other assertions he made) seem to me to be incorrect.

But, as you said, he is a good story teller. Like Taleb. Getting the moral across is more important, even if sometimes the wolf eats little red riding hood in malformed renderings.
