No, I wasn't claiming you'd written it.  But it's on the website of
someone in business of selling grounding solutions.  Since a Ufer
ground costs very nearly nothing to install when pouring concrete
(only labor costs of making sure the rebar or mesh are connected
properly), requires  roughly zero maintance, and works remarkably
well, it's within the realm of possibility that they're not entirely
unbiased.  (Of course, it's really amazingly expensive to retrofit
one. )
