Productivity isn't just doing things at all. It also implies to distribute your efforts on various tasks. Some tasks are less interesting then others and you can get lost on the ones you like. You can feel productive for streaks but after a week you realise that you forgot/ignored all the important stuff. This is what pomodoro can deal with.
But most productivity hacks need an decent amount of discipline, which people with some sort of "clinical lazyness" won't have. Building this discipline is a completely different topic.

There is still an element of discipline there and disorders make a mountain out of discerning where the disorder ends and the lack of discipline begins. But if it helps it helps.

Dismissing ADHD as "clinical lazyness" is about as insulting and technically incorrect as calling Alzheimer's disease "clinical stupidity". Sufferers of ADHD have problems with distractions, and maintaining attention, and systems like those mentioned in the article can help to manage that.
