Jason is an expert at leveraging hyperbole to a) get attention and b) initiate constructive dialogue. I respect him for his ability to do both.

But sometimes I feel what he writes needs to have a disclaimer at the top that says, "This is what worked for me in my very unique business. It may be disastrous in yours."

Basically, I view Jason as a conversation starter, not someone whose advice I'm necessarily going to follow. And having talked to him a few times at cons I've gotten the feeling that's really what he wants.

That doesn't need to be stated, it's a given. They never say our way is the only way to do things; they're just telling you what works for them.
