OK, I believe you, but then, does the trick described in the article work?

I ask because if it works, the principle is the same: using a commonly used protocol to circumvent limitations. It used to be easier to do then, it's more involved now.

In other words: is it possible to tunnel anything through https?

No it's not. The earlier method used only a commonly used port, and did not require the use of a commonly used protocol.
