There's so much wrong with this authors statement. You've succeeded in disguising your draw, and increased your implied odds in the process.
If you push on a draw and get called you did no succeed in disguising your draw. A semibluff is only 100% successful if you get your opponent to fold. The draw is just your backup plan if a better hand keeps playing.
The whole point of a semi bluff is to try to fold your opponent but still have outs if he calls anyway.
