Just using this year as an example, of the top 10 graded o linemen this year 6 were tackles and 3 of the 6 were sub 34 inch arm lengths. As PFF points out in there review finding information on UDFAs is a little harder if they didn't go to the combine which could provide some confirmation bias but overall the idea is if a guy is draftable arm length doesn't matter.

And yet the entire football world talks about length is important at offensive tackle.

And the article you are mentioning uses an entire paragraph to explain how its analysis is limited I read it a few years back.
