I tend not to like generalizations like this, but ... yeah, I kinda have to agree with this.  But that probably shouldn't be much of a surprise.  Introverts spend more time alone than extroverts, and we tend to spend more time introspectively, and we tend to like to learn stuff.  That extra time we spend on ourselves often goes into (among other things) improving our communication skills, both written and oral, but especially written, because, y'know, we recharge by being alone.

Good writing come with introversion mostly because introversion gives us the time to learn how to write gooder.

Why does an article on introverts have a picture of an AW at the top?

Extroverts couldn't sit down at a computer long enough to write a good story.

The author really likes root beer, I guess

Introverts are the best at writing

Yeah, TFA doesn't really say that. It says introverts would be well-advised to be good writers, following a handful of sensible tips.

I do tend to prefer to communicate in writing as much as I can, reserving meetings and calls for stuff that otherwise can't be resolved. I guess people were forced to be more outgoing before the mid-90s when email became the dominant form of office communication. Maybe that would have been a good thing for me, who knows.

Shenanigans.  I'm an introvert, I've had only 30 greenlights, and the book I'm trying to write is unpublishable shiat.
