I think most of those points you said aren't the reason, there are many ways to manage stuff on platforms more private that has also all of those points you said (Matrix has all of them), and I think the only reason they use discord is that they can show "gaming now", put a GIF as a user picture and things like this. If for you Discord is easy to use it's because you have been using it already, for me, it's confusing.
Dude, Matrix mod tools are pretty much universally complained about, and I say that as a person who uses Matrix as a mod.
But they are
Mod tools or tools like play music on an audio room? Because seems like it's more about features like this than moderation tools (or that's my feeling).
Matrix has moderation tools (https://matrix.org/docs/communities/moderation/), but the bot needs to be hosted by yourself, or you need to pay. So from the 5 points @rbits@lemm.ee has written, I only agree with "Huge amount of useful bots created by the community" as discord is the most used.
