Can you pick out a couple of specific things in the article that you feel strongly about being incorrect and let us know what you say about them?
Yup, will quote the article
article said:
First of all, when you have fewer than 25 big blinds there should be very few if any situations where you call a raise out of position.
This part is wrong, there are plenty of spots where you can peel with 25bb oop.
article said:
AQ AK I would not make a massive overbet preflop. I would just make a large 3-bet (since we are out of position I would 3bet to 3.5-4x there open raise)
3.5 to 4x this shallow is not needed, much better to 2.75 to 3.25x if we 3b and it isn't a jam.
article said:
When stacks get even deeper than that you have to make your value 3-betting range smaller, since there allin range will be tighter, consider adding hands like AQ and TT to your flatting range when you are 40bb+ deep even in steal situations. When you have a 40bb stack its disastrous to 3-bet preflop, continuation bet half pot and then fold to a shove losing around 40% of your stack in the process, so try not to do that.
1st part of this isn't true. AQ and TT will also generally stay 3b at 40bb deep. Last part of this just isn't really a thing either as our cbet will be pretty small for the most part.

Another example that may be considered acceptable and profitable is called the “stop and go play”, its very well known by now and most of your opponents will know what your doing. What a stop and go is, you call a raise from the blinds and then shove your stack in on the flop no matter what the flop is. The idea behind it is to try and create some fold equity postflop where it doesn’t exist preflop and is usually done when you have a pretty short stack. Doing this its often a bad idea because you will often have very little fold equity and your opponent will be calling you with a very wide range, in most cases I recommend that you just fold your hand preflop if you think you have no fold equity and are behind your opponents raising/calling, the chances are if you have no fold equity preflop you will have very little postflop. This is best tried against tight players postflop who will fold hands that miss the flop and hands like ace high to your allin shove.
Lots of spots where stop n go is good. Generally doing so is far better than jamming pre, especially in low fold
equity spots.

1
As stacks get deeper position becomes more important
2
As stacks get deeper you have to make your value allin range less wide
3
Flatting out of position is rarely acceptable with less than 25bb stacks
4
Re-stealing is best against tags with high fold to 3-bet %.
5
Re-stealing is not good against fish or calling stations.
6
The stop and go play can be used to create postflop fold equity that doesn’t exist preflop.
7
You can flat out of position with a wider range against late position opens than early position opens.
8
You can slowplay monsters preflop if your opponent will always fold to a 3-bet.
1. True, which is why a lot of the article saying we cant peel in these spots is wrong.
2. True
3. Very false
4. True, but more important stat in general is how loose they open when folded to (Raise First In)
5. partially false, vs many fish it can be a good thing to do so loosely. Calling stations are bad to resteal vs.
6. True, its why stop and go can be great, but the rest of article says it can be bad...
7.True, but generally only minimally.
8. True.
