The headline isn't technically wrong but it's a tiny bit misleading because the use of web views is limited to a small number of iCloud account screens. These aren't really "system" preferences so much as Apple cloud service settings which have been wedged into System Preferences.
(And where it is used, it's doing the barest minimum. The preference window itself, the top bar, and the iCloud sidebar are all still native UI.)
