It seems that philosophers rarely make use of rigorous logic even though they stand to benefit from it immensely.

Philosophers invented rigorous logic. This one sure didn't present any, though.
Contemporary academic philosophy is full of rigorous logic. Either you're ignorant of what actual academic philosophers do, or you can't recognize rigorous logic when you see it.
Sure, many academic philosophers produce good work, but as many popular articles of this nature are riddled with logical holes and give a poor impression of what philosophy is.
