Drywall is pretty amazing, but I don't agree with all the points in the article.

It cheap to buy and cheap to install, easy to cut and installs fast. It's tolerant with imperfect walls and is surprisingly flexible. It can also be seamlessly repaired.

It can also act as a primary air barrier.

I do not like moisture resistant drywall, moisture control is more important as well as using proper materials in high humidity areas.
