How is it the same functionality? The feature that made it work was the bookmarklet, otherwise it's just a blockquote macro that adds a page URL for the source. Hence why the article clearly says "This change makes the plugin simpler to maintain but removes the time-saving feature that made Press This feel like magic." Exactly, no time-saving, no functionality, no plugin.

The Share Article is perfect example of not the same at all -- in both cases, you basically have to copy and paste the text manually now. If that's the case, how does the plugin help at all, particulalry if in the case of Share Article it just takes the first para, i.e. not customizable.

I sent the post to a guy with a pretty active website that uses a similar function pretty EXTENSIVELY (i.e. his site is a curation type site that reviews articles in a narrow niche, excerpts them, and puts a link back to the original). I think he's doing all of it with Press This. If it's gone, that's major, particularly given the number of hits he gets a day and if he is reduced to doing it all manually.
