he is worth listening to but only as another opinion. like anyone's it shouldn't be treated as the be-all.
personally i think he oversimplifies and reduces aesthetic value to almost zero. if we took a severe bare bones approach to design imagine how boring magazine/editorial work would look (and they are still just information trying to get through to an audience same as a web-site).
imagine pitching the 'design' of his site to a client. it couldn't be done. all the talk of usability and seo excellence wouldn't slow the client down as they headed for the door.
