I understood something different from the article. The author seems to be saying it may be unwise to believe everyone else is doing FP with immutability (which is understood in the article to be The Right Thing) because programmers less experienced with Scala, especially those coming from Java and OOP, may not be aware FP is the recommended way (or that they still "haven't made the transition" into thinking the FP way). Not because there are cases where the OO style makes more sense.
