I agree with the article, and I love how the author is (mis-)using MCP. I just want to rephrase what the accident actually is.
The accident isn't that somehow we got a protocol to do things we couldn't do before. As other comments point out MCP (the specificaiton), isn't anything new or interesting.
No, the accident is that the AI Agent wave made interoperability hype, and vendor lock-in old-fashioned.
I don't know how long it'll last, but I sure appreciate it.
