To be fair, a big part of the Rails 3 rewrite was making it modular so you could have different opinions. Of course, not everybody was as equal as everybody else; a lot of Rails extensions seem to assume that you stuck with the defaults. Devise, last time I checked, was very hard to integrate if you switched out ActiveRecord for Sequel. But my information is a couple years out of date.

I think this blog post is really more about reminding people of DHH's brand than adding anything new. Rails has always been "opinionated" software.
