So they think archive.today can be replaced with:

Replace the archive link so it points to a different archive with a copy of the source, such as the Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive (https://web.archive.org/), Ghostarchive (https://ghostarchive.org/) or Megalodon (https://megalodon.jp/).

No.

They think that relying on a hostile archive will ultimately harm Wikipedia.

They know the shortcomings of the other options.

It's not that they aren't as good, necessarily.

More that the others do less "grey-hat" stuff, and therefore are less likely to cause harm or alter the content they host.
