Yes that's true for common programs like less, tail, grep, awk, and sed. I do think Scoop can give you better support for ln and sudo though. Then on top of that, Scoop lets you install Ruby, Postgres, Figlet, Go, Vim etc.

For a lot of GNU core utilities, Scoop uses the same MSYS programs that come with MSYS Git, it's just installing them separately so you can choose only the ones you need.
