No, gear level has very little to do with difficulty. For example go look at good guilds like Nihilum running T5/T6 raids with characters in T4 equiv gear. I out perform epiced players with my greens and blue alts all the time. What the article talks about is a lack of difficult *mechanics* (hard to pull mobs due to pathing, packs of mobs that need to be CCed to live through, bosses that aren't just tank and spank with a simple gimmick etc).
The last boss of Ramparts is a good example of a fairly difficult boss for the gear level. It isn't just simple tank and spank, and the damage output is quite high for the level range.
