This thing reads like it was written a few years ago, to my mind (source: I've been working in ML most of a decade now).
Disintermediation of data pipeline creation is definitely nothing new at this point and the technologies aren't that novel at this point either. I'd be surprised that this is on the front page, but it takes time for the lessons in this article to be learnt by a large enough amount of people that it becomes humdrum.
Above all, it reminds me of a consultant friend telling me he had two clients who built feature stores - one with an open-ended goal of enabling people and one because they had some specific things they wanted to achieve. The outcomes they got were as dissimilar as their motives!
