Downvoted because the criticism is too vague to really reply to. This isn't the first time I've observed it in your comments; I'd recommend elaborating more if you want them to be useful. (On the other hand, often - including now - your comments do seem like they'd have an insightful idea behind them, which is why I took the time to contribute this comment. )
It's more of a voice of dissent than criticism, naming an issue rather than constructing it. There is a tradeoff between elaborating and staying silent: on one side too much effort, on another absence of data about what intuition says. I don't feel it's OK for this post to have a positive score, and I'm pretty sure about this judgment even without making details explicit for myself. Sometimes that's a fallacy, of course.
Fair enough. Though I don't think it'd take that much work to make the comment in question more constructive. A sentence or two about why the concepts used are useless would already help a lot.
