That blog is about right. I looked into it once, in a lab, as an exercise, and abandoned blogging anything about it. Here's why... that namespace only exists if you just so happen to have checked the box about iisv6 Management components during install (I think that's the name of the item, or something similar). And, yes, I completely agree that it's ridiculous that people would NOT include that when installing IIS; because without it means you pretty much always have to login interactively, and configure IIS via the gui.
What can I say... people are ridiculous. I found such a high percentage of machines in the lab environment which clearly had IIS installed, but had nothing to report for that namespace that those server admins didn't include that management piece when installing IIS on their boxes. So it boils down to "it works fine, if your IIS build processes are consistent and always include the management piece of IIS".

Anyone have MOFs that will inventory IIS (app pools, settings, etc.) for CM12?
