The first thing I saw right off is that the author names Steve Jackson and Greg Spafford as "contemporaries." Um, no, not really. When Gary made his game, his only real contemporary was Dave Arneson. They were out there on the leading edge, and if others came along and did it "better" later, that's like criticizing the Wright Flyer because it can't go supersonic.
