Is this true ? : Zero-to-sixty actually doesn't matter so much ?

Like every aspect of measuring and testing capabilities of a car, 0-60 acceleration measurement tests only that aspect which is dominated by engine output and available traction. This test measures

Like every aspect of measuring and testing capabilities of a car, 0-60 acceleration measurement tests only that aspect which is dominated by engine output and available traction. This test measures certain limits that aren't necessarily used in everyday driving and even on some forms of competition. This isn't the only one that could be considered "less important". Take lateral acceleration, for example, does an average driver venture out to see half of the lateral acceleration in the car being driven?

Bottom line, this article was written to invoke responses and to make the readers think deeper into something that's, otherwise, just another test of a car.
