That's a terrible summary! It's like saying it's obvious that GM should ignore anything Henry Ford ever said about making cars. There might be good reasons to act differently, but simply being a different organization isn't one.

I think you have it backwards. It's more like saying that not every single thing Henry Ford ever said actually describes the best possible way of making cars. Henry Ford was capable of getting things wrong.

I don't think anyone is claiming that Ethereum should do things differently just to be different. The claim is that actually that Ethereum isn't necessarily worse just because it is different.
