I feel the blog post is a bunch of poorly thought through strawmen. I was browsing through the singleton example and I was wondering why would anyone use buggy code to implement something it clearly was not designed to implement.

The whole article is quite subpar. I was expecting idiomatic stuff that eliminated the need to implement something, like for example implementing singletons with modules and even getter functions, but there was none of that: just strawmen.

Really disappointing.
