Having only a single field for the entire name should be the norm all across the world. Automated systems can call people by their full name (“Hello, Bob Lemon”).
It’s gender neutral, solves sorting issues (e.g. Japanese), people without surnames (e.g. some African tribes, iirc) and whatnot.

The article doesn’t say that you must support all people’s names, only that you should make fewer of the assumptions (not even none)
