I concur.

Until reading this article I didn't know Fluent Design, Metro and Windows 8 Win32 were supposed to be separate design languages; I'm still not convinced, and in any case I can only see those with the sharpest of eyes noticing any differences here.

Calling out things like MMC, winver and screensaver settings as relics from Windows 95 also seems like a huge stretch to me. Even though their layout has remained the same (which is a good thing; they do their job well), their design language is quite clearly different from their Windows 95 counterparts.
