Comforter/Duvet loosing out to Blanket/Quilt or Suzani?

While I'm all for the revival of the blanket or any Quilt, I think my reasoning is probably vastly different from the author's.

The Wall Street Journal and Yahoo! Finance have been running an article on the demise of the Comforter, or Duvet, and the revival of the blanket or quilt.  The design world is ready to change the bed !  Really?
The Comforter is cited as the "gateway to overheating and unseemly bulkiness".
"David Mann, designer of legendary interiors including John Lennon and Yoko Ono's New York apartment in the Dakota, said, "I never use down comforters mostly because they are too common…and hot.""
"Down's detractors curse the lumpy, untidy covering as not only a sweat factory, but a style error."
And the author goes on to compare a comforter as "the bedding equivalent of a ski parka."
The author also compares the Duvet to a wood-burning oven, folded standing as high as the Great Wall of China, freshly washed stank of farm animal, dressing a cranky newborn in a three-piece suit, and formless feathers corralled at one end and an empty carcass at the other end.

Meanwhile, the Suzani is offered up as the perfect replacement:
