From CP newsletter.
Almost half the men surveyed think they could land a passenger plane. Experts disagree | CNN[^]
"So, if you’ve never even learned the basics of flying, your chances of successfully landing a passenger aircraft with air traffic control’s help are close to zero."
So I am guessing the article is claiming that if the crashing plane does not have fully certified pilot on board every one should just give up and die.
Also wonder about the article diverging into the following...
"For takeoff, the aircraft must build up speed until the wings"
Were they perhaps worried that a passenger would need to step in for an emergency takeoff? Because? Like the zombie apocalypse and everyone needs to escape from the horde running across the field?

That's a very big step beyond "learned the basics of flying". There are loads of people out there who have flown a glider, or taken controls of a light aircraft for a few minutes, or have spent hours - or months - on a flight sim.
Whilst all of these are very different from landing a passenger aircraft, the principles are the same and at least there's a chance that the newbie pilot will have a grasp of terms like pitch, yaw, flaps, glide path etc. If the instructor on the ground can tell the pilot to "push the nose down a few degrees until you're on the glide path, and check your wings are level" that's a LOT simpler than explaining the basics.
There are plenty of well-documented cases where an "untrained" pilot has landed a small plane with the assistance of an instructor on the ground. Of course the "documentation" in cases where it's all gone horribly wrong is harder to come by, as it's a smoking heap in a field somewhere. There are almost no cases of completely untrained pilots landing larger commercial aircraft, because it's a very, very, very rare instance when both pilots are incapacitated and there's not even a partially qualified pilot on board.

Someone has to be a smartarse here and I think it's my turn... again 
You wouldn't want to do that, as pushing the nose down would increase your speed - on approach the power controls the descent rate and the stick/pitch controls speed.
So what you would want to do is to reduce the power to increase descent rate.
Outside of being the smartarse I guess I am trying to say that - yes it is very different to how people may imagine it is even if they have self-taught themselves how to fly a flight simulator -> Dunning–Kruger effect[^]

Unless of course you're not only too high but too slow as well. Or your engines have fallen off. But yes, this is whya novice can't do it on their own. I suspect the hard part is establishing radio contact in the first place.

But does it clarify where to bury the survivors?

If the stand in pilot does a good/bad enough job the passengers won't need to be buried.
As the aircraft designer said, "Simplicate and add lightness".

Is that after having them for dinner or after the crash...

That question only comes into play if you crash on a national boundary.

If I were a survivor, I would prefer to delay considerations concerning my burial to some later occasion.

We also have a rather old joke (from the mid-1970s or earlier).

The article is weird.
Obviously, not every capable person can deal with the stress of the situation. (maybe the 40 yo mom in economy is the best one to do it and not the 30 yo. eye doctor)
Most people will never be able to do a smooth landing.
Most people will be able to safely crash the plane. (crush the landing gears, land too soon, land too late ... )
If a plane is in such condition, every resources will be made available to help crash land the plane.
All other planes will be prevented to land or depart.
All radio chatter will be minimal.
Modern planes have very capable auto-pilot (I think most planes can be fully operated with the auto-pilot, from takeoff to landing).
(see the many auto-landing videos)
