That quote doesn't directly relate to either of your points. It's only pointing out that an advantage is that Mongo is easy to get set up and load data into quickly.

In certain use cases, that advantage is important (rapid prototyping). In other cases, it's easily outweighed by things like the potential lifetime of the system and the needs associated with that.

No one should make a decision on which tech to use by any one strength/weakness in isolation, and I don't think this article is promoting that mindset.
