The article treats Protestant as one large umbrella. There is a huge difference between leaving Catholicism to join the Southern Baptists or orthodox evangelical churches and leaving to join say ELCA.

Catholics do not seem to understand the differences...

You are right on money. Some of these people might have joined Protestant denomination because they don’t like the hierarchical nature of the Catholic Church. Some left because of theological position. Others because of worship styles. Each of those might join different denomination.
