Also, Buffett's quote here isn't some significantly new perspective. Hasn't this been the primary argument against bitcoin since the beginning?

I think holding bitcoin is more of an investment in the underlying technology. If it is useful, presumably the demand will rise for it. It's like owning a stock that has most of its value in its intellectual property. For instance, Disney has a P/E (price earnings ratio) of 38, significantly higher than the typical firm. This is due to Disney's intellectual property. Disney will be able to produce and profit from Marvel movies for years along with their extensive catalog. When an investor buys Disney stock, a big chunk of what they're paying for is the technology (in this case intellectual property)
