Because that article is from August and Apple has had YEARS to implement it. Also they’re just discontinuing the Chromecast device, not the Chromecast protocol which means if I bought this new device I could use every single app I use right now in the exact same way I have it right now.

Apple TV is available for pretty much every major TV platform. Chromecast has been abandoned by Google so why would Apple support it?

You are conflating the Chromecast device with Chromecast the tech.
Chromecast the tech still exists. I wouldn’t support it, but thats not the same as it being discontinued.
