You forgot the part where, between buying bitcoin with cash and completing the purchase, the broker is hacked and all of your play money evaporates into nothing.

Reading that article is pretty funny, since the guy points out with the upcoming bitcoin changes, people can change the payment after it has been sent (apparantly to increase fees, and hence make a block confirm quicker) so you can "buy" something then edit your transaction to be for 0.000001 bitcoin instead of 0.1 and walk out of the shop without paying.
