I personally stoped reading after this sentence :

> And while SQL statements are fun, it’s easy to drop all tables while futzing with a key or corrupting an entire repository with a malformed query.

This seem to indicate that the writer don't real get a grasp of very basic modern SQL databases features such as permissions, constraints and transactions.

Without such understanding how can one form an accurate comparison of NoSQL benefits vs SQL. Or maybe worse the author has a good understanding but prefer to make bold and false statements to push his point.
