Author of the post here. I agree. It's not a big deal. I just wanted to compare the two and document my findings. As I said in the post, Simplex isn't a drop in replacement for Perlin, but it's easy enough to tweak the values to match if that's what you need to do. Most applications of Perlin noise (from what I can see) are more on the creative side of things, and in most cases, someone is just fiddling with some values until something "looks right" anyway.
