Honestly, these are quite possibly some of the most incoherent arguments I have ever seen:
"At least, I'm assuming that he's including these companies in his false-nostalgia..." - great assumption
"Where "major differences" would have been" - You seem to be reinforcing the authors point here.
"This has nothing to do with why Facebook didn't want to go public." - You totally missed the authors point here.
"He spends a couple of paragraphs decrying liquidity in markets, and then calls this a bad thing." -You might want to check the definition of decrying.
