I think that when critically thinking about an article, it’s worth considering if an article is an opinion piece.
In this case the article is an opinion guest essay, the stated goal for which is to “offer readers a robust range of ideas on newsworthy events or issues of broad public concern from people outside The New York Times.”
I think it is a mistake to assume this article reflects the position of the New York Times because they chose to run it.
It’s an opinion piece.
