yeah, after reading the article, its absence is quite odd-- i guess the author thinks its hard to learn, or something.
blender is my first 3d modeling & sculpting program, and it did take me a long time (6 months) to learn. i guess there could be some merit in not including blender, but i haven't tried the other programs, so i wouldn't know
Knowing what I know now, I would say Blender is a lot easier to learn and master than 3dsMax or Maya. Blender does have some quirks that 3dsMax does easier like grouping vs collections but you can just use add-ons to do the same things. I haven't really found anything lacking with Blender that made me want to go back to Max. I'm happy to be rid of that software and just Autodesk in general.
