They’re not.
Please read the news before spreading misinformation.

Their plan is to put out more snaps and drown out debs, which is a terrible plan.
Even your link says they’re NOT replacing the apt command with snaps. And yet above you said they were.
The snaps-only thing is in the store.
So I say again: they’re NOT turning apt into a snap-only thing. Please read news carefully before spreading fake news.
Try installing Firefox via APT and watch it install a snap package.
Still doesn’t mean every apt package is becoming a snap. Firefox is more of an “exception that proves the rule”.
And since you’re so desperately grasping at straws here, I won’t keep feeding this conversation.
