I'm also not enamored with the article itself, but was just
interested that it spawned some sub-threads of discussion on what
exactly IS a good programming language for beginners. that's where
Rev is relevant - to the growing SlashDot discussion, not to the
Salon.com article.
FWIW,

I thought about that but it's not a direct answer to the author's
concern.
He says line coding allows a beginner to create and trace algorithmic
execution and doesn't require use of UI componentry. I think he
misses the
point a bit with that qualifier, but then that's probably just me.
