how does this make it impossible to write a neutral article

Because we then don't have any sources for any of the alternative opinions. Thus the article is presenting only one POV.
Now you're *really* clutching at straws. Either that, or you're taking the piss.
NPOV doesn't mean "you must find someone, anyone, who holds a differing view before you can print any statement". That's called "balance", and it's why Fox News is so wonderful.
