I'm at a bit of a loss too. I think the article was more about how you could reshape Dungeon Fantasy into a Non-Greyhawk setting. The Dungeon Fantasy default is fairly Western. The absence of Medieval European politics and social order is more a function of the fantasy setting. If you're looking for something that feels more profoundly Western European I'd toss out the Dungeon Fantasy aesthetic entirely and start with GURPS Middle Ages and prop it up with some Low Tech equipment and methodology. From there you can decide how much magic and supernatural beasts to sprinkle into your game.
