Hi, author here. You're absolutely right! (yes, Claude-pun, I'll see myself out...) - I mean, I agree that Company A will remain "good", and may not need to worry about Company B. If that came across in the post then it was unintentional.

A lot of the criticism I've seen here could probably be addressed by me clarifying that no, I don't think AI should be blindly adopted, and no I don't think it adds efficiency or productivity by just existing and being "used". It needs thoughtful implementation, and each developer I know or manage or have chatted to uses it subtly differently, hence why I encouraged experimentation and trial-and-error, because when it "clicks" for you, then in essentially every case I've experienced or seen first hand, its added something (whether rigor, speed, efficiency, capability, etc).
