That article is addressing knee vs. quill for a CNC conversion. Elrod makes quill CNC Z axis conversion kits for BP type machines. One of the few quill axis systems that can be reasonably switched between manual and CNC operation. Some CNC conversion systems use the knee for the Z axis, this would not be my first choice for a CNC Z axis.
For a manual machine none of this applies. A manual knee or bed mill will still have a quill in all cases.
