YES! The article says this:

> But a few specialty houses (...) have long advocated for the warmth of analog. “Not that you can’t make good records with digital, but it just isn’t as natural as when you use the original tape,” says Bernie Grundman

which is absurd. "Warmth" is a kind of distortion, and if a signal is distorted then it's less accurate or "natural"!

They can't claim "fidelity" and "warmth" at the same time. It's one or the other.
