The most important sentence tompave wrote in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23819312/rails-undefined-method-user-index-path is this:
A model with a plural name, e.g. class Users, will confuse rails.
Analysis:

And one can find there
rails generate scaffold Articles title:string body:text
This generates a warning
[WARNING] The model name 'Articles' was recognized as a plural, using the singular 'Article' instead. Override with --force-plural or setup custom inflection rules for this noun before running the generator.
The second most important sentence in tompave's answer is
The person who coded up the Rspec test seems to have known using the plural form "Articles" would generate the articles_index_path method rather than article_path.
And thus my confusion has been addressed.
I wish I could thank tompave directly
Normally it would beuser_pathfor singular routes (show, update, delete) andusers_pathfor the plural ones (index, create). Here, however,users_pathmust be used for the singular routes, and Rails will fallback to useusers_index_pathforindexandcreate.
