I think there's a distinction. The term came from those who were deliberately avoiding rootedness, and trying to follow a path that (depending on the person) might ideally involve working from a beach one month and a rain forest another. As the article describes, this choice may be becoming less of a "choice" than a necessity, and in that case we probably shouldn't refer to them as digital nomads. But it doesn't mean that vision doesn't exist for some people.
