> No, only that the article is being misleading in it's breathless clickbaitiness.
If you read the entire article, you would not describe it as click-bait.
Additionally, I agree with kevinwang's assessment that the statement by Hearn that you quoted is 100% in line with what Hearn is saying in his Medium article. The key quote is "...the system we actually use today with the block chain, isn't going to change the world at all due to the 1mb limit.". Hearn's Medium article is -actually- ~50-> ~75% about this 1MB limit. (Spoiler alert: it's not a limit of the Bitcoin protocol, but rather a political decision made by many of the Bitcoin Core developers.)
