There's a famous quote:

  Those who cannot remember nmap are condemned to remake it poorly

Rootless nmap scan of a /24 in under 10 seconds:

  nmap -T5 -sn -PR --script broadcast-dns-service-discovery,broadcast-upnp-info 10.0.0.0/24
  …SNIP…
  Nmap done: 256 IP addresses (30 hosts up) scanned in 9.99 seconds

I like nmap and use it often. The linked tool seems to be doing different or additional things vs nmap.

What makes you think it’s not learning from/remembering nmap?

  • That nmap command does the same thing as the author's command, except for the UI, for which there are dozens of nmap-uis available.

    • But you've got to admit that OPs tool does it quicker, except if you like to memorize flags or already have a script specifically for this. And it's much nicer on the eye than most (all?) nmap-guis out of the box.
