From my perspective, this article is not suggesting people try to be someone else.
It reminds me of the popular book "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking"
In that book, the author suggest that introverts fake extroversion in short bursts.
As an introvert myself, this is something I've done for a decade. It's tiring but pays off. Sometimes we introverts miss out on great opportunities because we don't stretch our comfort zone.
I think this article is good advice on small ways for introverts to put themselves out there and "fake extroversion".

"The author suggests that introverts fake extroversion" is still convincing someone to be an extrovert.
No, it's really not, especially if you don't drop the "in short bursts" qualifier.
