I didn't, I defined 'worked' as something lots of people use. How many orders of magnitude more people use gtiles and not wms?
The point there was that there was this big standard for serving maps, google ignored it, and now tiled wms is trying to catch up. You can say with 20:20 hindsight that WMS wasn't meant for what google are doing... but I'd be surprised if during the spec process all were agreed that they wanted to make sure large volumes were unachievable with the spec and they'd leave it for someone else to put large scale maps on the web.
