I wish the author had spent more time looking at Pulumi. I think I can boil the article down to the following assertion:

"True"/Better infrastructure as code means packaging infrastructure with code. The ability to define structure (a la classes/data types) and instantiate instances (a la class instances/value types) at the macro system level is important.

This is expressly supported by Pulumi's component and custom resources[0]. I think they don't even know how powerful this feature is, because it's buried so deep in the documentation.
