I completely disagree with the statement of that website regarding
bitterness in fully ripe limes. Nothing could be farther from the truth,
they actually turn a bit sweeter.

I thought that was kind of odd, too.
Every fruit that i know of gets sweeter as it ripens... apples, oranges, strawberries,
grapes, etc.
Up to a certain point, then they rot.
