Replace the word 'black' with any other color you can think of in this article and it's pretty clear how dogmatic this is. I'm all for setting rules and constraints for a given design project, but trying to set universal rules apart from the context of the project with these arguments is fallacious since one can easily give strong counter arguments in favor of pure black. In fact, OLED screens are as black as they come since a pure black OLED won't draw any power. This is a wonderful aspect of it's function that results in incredible saturated graphics like those found on the op-1 synth display: http://www.teenageengineering.com/products/op-1/overview
