They offer additional features. One Note ties into the MS eco-system in an okish way. Obsidian is basically text (actually md) in a folder/folders but supports plug-ins that can do a lot. Notion is backed by databases. Others run in the terminal and can support plug-ins. Evernote was one of the first to offer additional features and offered syncing and connections to other apps (seems a lot of that has been restricted in the last 15 years).

The author of that article seems completely out of touch with the requirements of a modern office. Also, that is in no way related to a note taking app.
I do agree with the sentiment that low tech can be good. While I find note taking apps helpful, I also like a notebook and pen (even lower tech than a typewriter).
