The fact that now each wheel can be fully independent with their own motors makes executing this much easier than before without adding extra hardware, simply working with software.
It's actually more difficult. Previously those wheels had no drive and no issues being fully independent.
Adding a motor to the wheel makes this more complicated than in the 20s but much more advantageous.
If you want to do full crab like the one in the article, not just front wheels like in the oldies video, you need to power the wheels. With 4 independent driving wheels you can switch between traditional 2 wheel steer, 4 wheel steer, crab (for parallel parking) and orbit for turning around in place. There is no transmission axle between the wheels so they can be independently rotated and controlled, just like on a film dolly.
