I can't comment on the blog author's motivations as I haven't seen
the article you mention, but a VPN is useful any time you need to
join your network to another network in a secure and authenticated
manner. It doesn't really matter what protocols are in use on either
side—could even be something exotic and non-IP that you end up
running over the link.
Cheers,
