Yeah, a lot of gun writers were writing that when I started hunting. Didn't believe it for long, however, as too many hunters I knew used 'em--and not too much later I did too--first the .220 Swift with a so-called varmint bullet weighing 60 grains, that as far as I could tell worked just about like 100-grain bullets from a .243.
Of course, there were some gun writers who said the .243 was too small as well when it came out. But they were even older than Ingwe.
