I like this advice. I actually just ordered a used 1Ds2 from Adorama to be a companion to my 5D2. I almost bought the 5DI just to have a 2nd FF but then I considered the AF and the shutter lag and the 1Ds2 seemed to be the best choice. I expect the 1Ds2 to be superior to the 5D2 in every aspect except high ISO performance and slightly less in IQ.
