I hope this allows for tighter integration into Home Assistant.

I wasn't following it tightly, but would Matter help with cross-compatibility? Or is it only if devices use Google hub as a Matter coordinator directly?

This scripting is a bit different than Matter. Scripting is more "here's what to do with these devices" Matter is more "this is a device"

Matter will absolutely eventually help with interoperability and cross-compatibility, but since it is new, the software stacks are immature, and there isn't enough end hardware. Give it a year or two, and almost everything new will be matter compatible.
