When one cannot determine right or wrong its easy to ride the fence and try to please everyone and rationalize motivations and outcomes.

If vibe code is not production code than you are just "reading" your fathers playboy magazines "for the articles" and creating tech debt you or nobody else can maintain.

If you read between the lines there I think vibe coding is a very "generous gesture" towards the folks "doing this"

Also the article bugs me referring to programming paradigms like visual basic as "equivalent to" vibe coding. That is factually incorrect and should be stricken from the record.
