The article/thread just makes it seem like Nola is getting trounced in shipping when we are not.
For containerized cargo, it is. I move a lot out of Mobile and Houston. Rarely South Louisiana anymore.
Port of South Louisiana is also misleading in this context. That includes everything on the Mississippi River from Baton Rouge to the gulf. It's not centralized in New Orleans and thus isn't as good of a barometer on the supply chain dependencies on the city as "Houston Ship Channel" is for Houston. It's much more broad.

Iirc, Port of Baton Rouge is its own port, Port of South LA is between BR and Nola, and Port of Nola is its own port.
The numbers from them have always been counted separately, correct?

Houston straight kicks arse. New Orleans pales in comparison.
