3. Did You Read The Article?
It seems not. The article isn't slamming homeownership. It's positing a question as to whether or not the drive to home ownership hasn't put a negative tone on renting, which means the demand rises faster than supply and causes things like hyperinflated home values.

Krugmann is asking this question from a purely economic point of view. There isn't really a value judgment in the article.
