It wasn't much of a rebuttal at that web site.

I remember being in China once and the LP guide book was hopelessly out
of date despite being an up-to-date edition in terms of publication
date. I checked subsequent editions which had the same errors. I.e., one
hotel I was looking for had not only changed names several years
earlier, but even the street that it was on had changed names. Try
telling a taxi driver to take you to a non-existent hotel on a
non-existent street.
