I am sorry to say this, but the entire article sounds like you are rationalising an irrational decision. As the studies show sitting is bad for you and while is understandable that not everybody can get used to work standing, just arguing against the research will not do any good. The final conclusion:
"The key is to do some activity every day. It doesn’t have to be a five-mile sprint. A walk to and from work, taking the stairs, or some squats while you’re waiting for your lunch can be enough to do the trick."
Sounds exactly like the stuff smokers say to justify their smoking habit.
I don't want to defend any religion (the standists? lol), i can just say that i like it, and i like it so much that after 3 years of standing i would keep doing that and i would really suggest to everybody to try for at least 3/4 months. You need time to get really used to it. After that make your decision.
