Unfortunately, the article isn't in the best shape right now.
Back when it was written, things were clear: random and urandom are the same. Then came getrandom as a distraction. Now urandom is based on chacha. So it's different (but not worse – still, harder to explain).
The article's structure couldn't easily accomodate those changes, and time was and is in short supply, and so it's not wrong, but much less forceful and clear than it used to be. I hope it shapes up soon, but don't promise anything!
Still, I don't know a more up-to-date article. Maybe Thomas Pornin has something newer on StackOverflow?
