I'd love to see an example of someone saying Heroku is for idiots. Although it's a bit pricey[1], I love it to pieces because it lets me focus on what I like to do: shipping product.
That said, I'd be delighted if Heroku would introduce a high-memory dyno. I've been working on something for the past few days where their soft'ish 512MB cap has been biting me in the ass.

edit: thanks for the link!
This rant is a reply to http://justcramer.com/2012/06/02/the-cloud-is-not-for-you/ which is indeed trashing Heroku.
I wasn't aiming to trash Heroku specifically, but the post by Randall is very uninformed.
It's not trashing Heroku specifically, it's actually a pretty good read and highlights real problems.
