I totally see your point here - it's frustrating that how I presented it undermined the impact of the core point, which is that siloed ownership of quality is an anti-pattern, and an anti-pattern which is often a response to the limitations and design principles of quality tooling.
We are to my knowledge the only product built for this kind of cross-functional ownership, that's why I don't recommend other products.
While I agree the post is too marketing-y - to be honest I didn't expect it to appeal so much to the HN audience - it was written in good faith. We built the product because after 7 years of building a product for one of those silos, we became convinced that the only long-term durable solution was to empower everyone to own quality. Clearly I need to figure out how to strike the balance that you outline in your last sentence, which was the goal!
