The point isn't that waiting longer will benefit you. The point is if for some reason the meal or shake after your training is delayed, you won't miss out on the 'anabolic window' and your results/progress won't suffer. It means eat to your macros but leave the timing to convenience. No need to rush home afterwards and guzzle down a shake within 26.378minutes. Just get some food in you when you're hungry and it's convenient. Some people are still stuck in the caveman era of bodybuilding and believe you MUST feed your muscles immediately after working out or think that you need to give your muscles nutrients as soon as possible. The differences are negligible considering you're eating isocaloric diets with similar macro content. So bottom line the a article Times posted isn't trying to say it's better to wait longer to eat, it's simply saying you don't need to rush to eat either.
