Not all countering can be done at an equal or profitable elixir trade-off. Negative elixir trades happen all the time. One can only have 8 cards in a deck and 4 available at a time, so it is unlikely a good trade will always be possible. That is why having several methods of countering described on articles is good. It accommodates as many situations as possible. Points that describe negative trade-offs are fine as long as the trade-off is not too negative (ie: countering Baby Dragon with Three Musketeers).
