The article does list what Tailscale adds on top of WireGuard:

> WireGuard by itself is mostly the data plane. Tailscale adds the control plane on top: identity/SSO, peer discovery, NAT traversal coordination, ACL distribution, route distribution (including exit node default routes), MagicDNS, and fast device revocation.

I think you missed the point. There's nothing in the article going into any of why this would help differentiate Tailscale from plain-old-Wireguard. Simply saying this and moving on is not that.
