Marcin is definitely Gen-X. His LinkedIn says he started his master's degree in 1997. Assuming a typical education that'd put his birth year around 1974. (Note he grew up in Poland, so a different Gen-X experience than from the US.)

Perhaps what you're interpreting as generational perspective is Marcin's analytical perspective as a professional designer. He's got a very keen eye for both historical design and modern. Also I read this post as a sort of fond irony, "look at this unusual and ugly font it's actually a thing of beauty, let me show you."
