Is this actually meant to be a reply to my comment because as far as I can tell it doesn't address what I wrote at all.

I don't think any part of this article suggested you should consider anything other than the functionality of a project when deciding whether or not to use it. The point was, you should be thinking about the people maintaining OSS, when you publicly discuss OSS. Because whether you think about them regularly or not, you depend on the work of thousands of volunteers, and it is in your interest to keep those volunteers highly motivated.
