I cited Kenji's article because it compares results between pressure cooking and braising. It's not the central point (which is that both pressure cooking and braising are generally better than a slow cooker). But there are some useful generalizations. 

He's not necessarily wrong, considering the limited tools he's working with, but he doesn't seem to be open to the fact that 'slow cookers' perform in vastly different ways.

Gosh, there are a gazillion different 'slow cookers' now. Some with vastly different designs and controls than others.

This isn't the '70s.

Gosh, there are a gazillion different 'slow cookers' now. Some with many more controls than others.
