> and they're honest about this just being about boot time.

reboot, not boot, boot was already a non-issue after booting into sh and removing most of the services.

The later posts deal with shutdown, mostly by removing sleeps... which are there to wait for lying hardware to finish flushing its caches. So some of TFA's fixes are really recipes for data corruption if you're not using a readonly FS (which TFA is, so it's no problem for his precise use-case).
