It sounds almost like the author is advocating for a really dumbed down BFF layer (backend for frontend) but what they are missing is behind the bff layer you would have general purpose apis. And if I interpret the article to the extreme what is the difference between this pattern and how html is currently served. Salesforce works sort of similar to what is described and it’s a nightmare, these restrictive ideals in my experience just aren’t good in practice because they tend to slow down development.
