The article seems to miss the point that we are able talk about these differences in terms of containers as they are abstracted into a purely software system that are reproducible. Versus a customized hardware+software system with no means to reproduce it. Containers were a huge step forward because they raised so much more of the software stack into a simple, repeatable, defined systems than were previously much harder to obtain.
