I don’t know, the advice in that link is, don’t take a multivitamin because there isn’t a lot of evidence it will do a lot of good. Instead they say you should just have a perfect diet, and to consult with a dietician if you feel you aren’t getting a perfect diet.
Seems to me that few people eat a perfect diet, and I’d be amazed if there’s evidence dieticians work better than multivitamins. People don’t eat right, not because they need education, but because unhealthy diets are tasty, cheap, convenient, etc…
And multivitamins are not all the same, they have radically different formulations, so I doubt the results of any research that didn’t specify a specific multivitamin, or break results by gender or age. (Vitamin needs/ deficiencies are often age related. Consider subsets like prenatal vitamins, vitamins for the elderly, etc…)
