Matlab's support for more than 2 dimensions in arrays is so bad that it's rare to encounter the situations lamented in TFA.

There are certainly some aspects of it that are inelegant, in the interests of backwards compatibility, but otherwise I don't know what you are talking about. Matlab supports >2d arrays just fine, and has for at least 20 years.

Yeah, in case anyone else has the misfortune of having to work with multi-dimensional data in MATLAB, I'd recommend the Tensor Toolbox, Tensorlab, or the N-way Toolbox.
