I think the point is that he's avoiding the product rather than change his process, and that he's hardly the only one.

Does he avoid banks, too?

I don't really see how his scatter-brained approach to login management is any less of a problem there, or on literally any other system that uses an email as a username or a password recovery mechanism.

I'm all for using a password manager. I also think it's not user-friendly for a single application to force one to use multiple email addresses. It's unnecessarily confusing and annoying.
Slack doesn't require you to use multiple email addresses. I log into most of my slack teams with a single email address - to log into Slack, you need a unique (slack domain + email address) combination, not a unique email address.
I think most people would avoid banks if they had the option. Slack is not something that came along thanks to the Federal Reserve Act in 1913
