For such a high-profile designer to make such a statement, very unproductive. Sure the app is not perfect in a "native" way, but how many companies out there who have a perfect "native" mac app AND also worth billions…
The trade-off was speed of execution to bring important and consistent experience to multiple platforms at the same time, and that exact decision (imo) has contributed directly to their success in a short amount of time.
So get your "iMessage for design team collaboration" and "web-view" babel out of here. For all we know, not many Slack users are using the desktop mac app.
ps: if you're using Slack to "organize" files, you're using it wrong. It's NOT for collaborative file management.
