I agree, but the blog post was specifically ruling out hybrid approach.

You had written. As long as we're in agreement that rushing PQ appears to be the appropriate choice. The only question is the precise form it should take, with the author arguing that hybrid would be unacceptably slow to roll out due to various social and bureaucratic reasons.

He's also pointing out that the only scenario in which hybrid is of benefit is one in which crypto related QC remains either relatively ineffective or extremely expensive in the medium term. Since that assumption is looking increasingly suspect it calls into question the point of hybrid to begin with. In the face of cheap QC hybrid adds zero value.
