Yikes. I've always been suspect of educators who maintain the students need role models and that's why the gifted should not be advanced or placed in a clustered class.
However, this article's potential for misunderstanding worries me. I'm afraid its premise will be read as :there's no proven benefit for gifted education.
And if that were the case I would argue that it would be because very few gifted education settings really meet the needs of the students.
