I don't think the articles premise is that Google axed all content older then 5 years or so. But that it gradually discards old unique content.
Which goes against the original mission of Google to "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible".
A "bug" could be an option, but I don't expect that to be the reason. It's too easy to find examples of forgotten content. And I don't think a bug of that magnitude in Googles core business would go unnoticed.
