I think the point the article is trying to make is that butterfly effect does not refer to unpredictability of future, as much as how difficult it is to trace back how we got to this point. While they are two sides of the same chaos coin, it is different perspective to look backwards and understand that it is not clear which event was decisive (if any) to reach current state vs trying to predict future. Especially as we humans are prone to creating easy narratives of past, but more easily accept the futility of predicting future.
