What I do appreciate about this article is that it doesn't just give anecdotes, but actually quantifies and explains the problems. In fact it even explains why not to use anecdotes!
Seems like most of the tips here could be applied to all sort of problems, not just scalability, and I think that's probably what the author was going for. To show that scalability isn't some special problem that needs special solutions, but that if you think hard about it, and use data to back up your findings, then it's just like any other problem you want to solve.
