Of course the 135mm is suitable for headshots but the article is NOT saying the 135mm is not suited for 3/4 and full portraiture. It is indeed suitable for 3/4 and full. Heck.....you can google 135mm portraiture and negate what you are alluding to.

Your post and the article is only telling half the story. Not good to disseminate information in this manner.
