I disagree quite a bit with the one. What is your opinion?

Does Xenforo really protect against spam better? It seems to but I could be wrong.

True, I don't think they represent the forum cause the forum uses Xenforo. Note, there could be some legit gripes, but I think it's really petty stuff. The cons are not enough to make someone have a strongly bad view of the software.

Which part do you disagree with or all of it?

I agree with some of it; the user permissions and usergroups are kind of hard to use and I prefer the phpBB permissions system. The support forum is actually very good and I very often had problems fixed very quickly.

In terms of spam, I don't think it protects spam any better than their competitors but it could just be a coincidence that there are more human spammers which is harder to avoid.

Some forum software like MyBB is actually missing a few vital plugins. Nonetheless, I still like it. However, SMF and phpBB seems to have everything covered, as long as your willing to install the mods.
