The don't puree things is right for BLW, but not the early start. It's lauded by breastfeeding/attachment parents as allowing more time to nurse so I think the article has got that aspect wrong.

That's the current guidelines, BLW advocates using solid food, not puree as they believe purees don't encourage your baby to eat properly.
