The plugin you mention looks great. I haven’t tried it, but I’d say the differences are:

- Page authoring is different: ProCourse provides a feature-rich backend, DiscPage only transforms a topic (so you’re limited by the usual markdown editing).
- ProCourse doesn’t support discussion balloons within pages.
