The idea is you can just take an APRS transceiver, turn it on in an area with APRS coverage, and it just works. CATS is pretty much the same.

In contrast, LoRa, is quite a bit lower level than that. If you want to build something on the LoRa stack, you're responsible for developing your own protocol, etc. and you're responsible for setting up both sides of the infrastructure. LoRa really lives on a similar level as the FSK that's used in CATS, or the AFSK that's used in APRS.
