@oristarA,
I can tell you the whole article is full of nonsense words: horseful, strapful, combobulated, ruly or peccable. The author is questioning why they aren't real words in English when discombobulated, unruly, and impeccable are words. Dis... and un... and im... are prefixes that usually change the meaning of the words in which they are attached.
These three words are some of the exceptions where when you take away the prefix, what remains is not a real word.

Is making an issue with the overused English proverbs ...
"She isn't a spring chicken" (meaning she is no longer a young child or young adult). Or "He wouldn't hurt a fly" (meaning that person is such a pacifist or a weakling that he couldn't be capable in hurting a fly, let alone try to hit or hurt someone else).
