I don't believe the author is writing for himself, or why would they put it on a blog, then ask people to subscribe to a newsletter?
Making an outline is great. But I'm not going to make someone read my notes on something I want to actually write, nor publish my shitty first draft and then have all of us treat it like some exceptional creative product.
This whole, "I'm beyond all that" is kinda navel gazing, narcissistic. If that's what you mean by "writing for oneself" than I guess I agree. I'm not actually convinced this person knows the fundamentals of clear communication or writing.
If what you want to do is teach, teach. If what you want to do is perform, perform.
