Meh.
I thought it was a decent explaination of why the resistance to twisting would be the same, providing the total spoke tension was the same.
If you do a quick spoke calc. You'll find roughly a 1% difference in spoke length for 24 vs 28 spokes. As this is your only varible when keep rim, and hub dimensions constant. Its pretty clear that bracing angle isnt going to change much.
