"Medium isn't a big thing because it's special in any way, it's a big thing because it was made by "web celebrities"."
This is dumb to the point of annoying. Did you read the article at all? Lots of great design thinking went into Medium. I'm constantly finding new features on Medium that are very well thought out.
Yes they have a huge problem of not letting the authors own their own work, which is why I will never use Medium as-is, but let's not say nothing is special about it either.
Even if the only thing you want to give them is credit for their beautiful typography, you have to at least them give them.
