I would not feel comfortable for anything beyond 5 hours without intervention on the WSM.
So basically, according to you, the author of that article and the thousands of people who use the linked method are imagining the fact that they load their WSMs, use the minion method, then run the WSM on that original load of charcoal for 12+ hours.

Glad to know we've been all been imagining these long cooks all this time.
