The article is spot on. It talks about sampling in general, not just audio and shows how sampling rates can be used differently for some signals. It talks about the effect of anti aliasing filters, and that sometimes they are detrimental (as in better off without). It talks about time delays and sampling in control systems. It mostly says, in the real world, your BW is rarely 1/2 the sample rate, usually a little bellow.
"The theme of this paper can be summed up to this: the Nyquist rate isn’t a line in the sand
that you can toe up to with complete safety. It is more like an electric fence or a hot poker;
something that won’t hurt you if you keep your distance, but never something you want to
saunter up to and lean against.
So you should be aware of the Nyquist rate when you’re designing systems. But to really
determine an appropriate sampling rate for a system, or to determine the necessary anti-
alias and reconstruction filters for a system, you have to understand aliasing and filtering.
You have to know what aliasing is, how you can avoid it, and even whether avoiding it is
the best answer for the system at hand."
