It’s not true, plenty of DOS programs stopped I/O operations with ctrl + z, and exited with ctrl + c.
What you are saying is that obviously there was no physical 1A byte to demarcate the end of the file, but 1A was used pretty much everywhere.
And it’s actually a non printable character:

So I’m missing the point of this article, CTRL Z and CTRL D are obviously non printable characters and of course they are not used anymore to demarcate the actual end of a file.
