I definitely side with the author. Any time we've used IB it's always ended up in regret. Refactoring, odd layout issues, iPad / iPhone management has always made it a headache.
It's probably a testate to how good UIKit is to code with directly that makes it attractive.
Though whatever side you fall on, I think it's worth appreciating you have the choice. I remember when doing some brief Windows Phone development, and seemed all you had to work with was some XML API to design your interfaces. It was awful.
