Why not? If the starting point of the article is that we can't design interfaces based on our elitist 5 percenter knowledge then the remedy for that would be...?
Why are you asking me? I didn't write the article.
Because you said that was not the point of the article and I asked you to clarify why you think it wasn't. But never mind. This is going nowhere.
Bad phrasing. I read your previous comment as demanding an explanation from me for why the author wrote an article about simple design rather than about user testing.
Honestly, I don't think the article would have been well-served by detouring into user testing. It's long enough as it is, and again -- NN group has written a LOT on the topic.
I'm not really sure why you brought it up in the first place. It seems like 'beating a dead horse' territory.
