The writer of that response is headed in the right general direction, but there is some detail missing.

In Paul’s time the term “last trump” had a well known and specific meaning. It came at the closing minutes of the celebration of Trumpets.

Yeah, but the overall thrust of his writing is the difference between the Revelation trumpets and the last trump for the church.
