I had not read the article, but you are right.

I find it very disappointing, that the CDU is willing to sell out its core constituency seemingly on nearly all issues.
But for staying in power, it is obviously the best thing for them. Losing freedom voters to the FDP won't change that the CDU will get more votes than the SPD, and for a black-yellow coalition the votes would not be lost.

I of course have very different feelings about this, but I agree this is a selling-out of the core constituency paralleling what the SPD did under Schröder.
