Particularly weak: the example about "cards" where the author refuses to do the right thing (splitting the card class into three or four variants, possibly with "utility" classes that add different ribbons to the common card style) because it would be a "refactor" (never heard about search & replace tools and/or using templates to avoid manual editing?), and she prefers to use convoluted tricks in order to complain that the card has become a "fragile base class".
