In my experience (not much) OpenVPN seems to offer a more turn-key experience, so if a user isn't comfortable with the added steps to configure wireguard, it is a better solution, because the alternative is probably nothing.

Good article.
Many routers will also let you either load or use a router based vpn. Ubiquity will let you load wireguard on the edgerouter lites for example, so you don't necessarily need additional resources.

Sorry but this article is kinda bad.
Openconnect VPN... sorry do i have to say more. This has to be a joke, this solution doesn't even come close to openvpn or wireguard in feature set, performance and whatever metric you want to look at.
OpenVPN comes before Wireguard. This makes no sense wireguard is faster and easier to setup. Literally no reason in 2023 to even consider openvpn, unless one of your clients is a windows 2000 machine.
