some good usability points on method names, but the bulk is mostly complaints by someone clearly unable to understand webservers or security. complaining that error level hides errors from output is very amateur. also complaining about info missing from the manual in open source is silly. test the two failure cases and send a manual improvement patch, instead of being annoying and wasting more effort on a blog post

You’re looking at it too simply. These are complaints of an expert with broad experience across PHP and similar systems, who found a steady stream of problems wherever she looked. These are systemic issues. The foundations themselves are unsound, and that’s difficult to ever fix. I think the analogy is good to give a basic sense of all this. And then the remainder of the article was written in such specific and extensive detail deliberately to counter shallow dismissals like yours.
