Elena, note the poll at the end of the article you mentiobned. There are only 10% percent more votes in favour to absolute urls.

Also there are some other issues:

• since the implementation of every extension depends on the author you cannot get a guarantee that the extension you want to use will have absolute urls
• absolute urls make difficult for you to switch site to another domain
• absolute url's can cause you problems if you want a separate mobile site on another subdomain (e.g. mobile.yoursite.com)

When all summed up, changing all links to absolute urls just isn't worth it...
