No. The article is very clear why: if the products don't contain sesame, they are required to prevent cross contamination, which they can't do.
They can't simply label them as "may contain sesame", as it doesn't absolve them of needing to prevent cross contamination.
Their only reasonable choice is to just add sesame.
That’s insane.
The other reasonable choice is to not produce non-seasame items in ways that can potentially cross-cobtaminate with sesame items, or vice versa.
If a bakery is jumping through hoops just to make a batch of sesame buns daily, I think there's some misdirected effort.
