Hmmm.  Usually Charlie does much better than this.  BTW, the features came
from a phone call with me, and I directed Charlie to some online lists.

I've a feeling what happened is that for some reason he waited several days
between asking me to explain the features and running the article (certainly
it was over a week until publication) and lost track of what they were
actually about.

Overall, I really don't see any issue for the community with the article;
people will assume that inaccuracies are Charlie's.  What the article
substantially says is that we're going into beta soon, which is good news to
have out there.
