Perhaps. But that's not the whole story, of course. As noted in the
article, when asked to explain what is different about Eigen:

"Generality: we need many different kinds of matrices: fixed-size,
dynamic-size dense, sparse. For example, BLAS and LAPACK handle only
dynamic-size dense matrices. Even MKL and vecLib have only limited support
for fixed-size matrices."
