NYT article references geographic job diffs & not inequality of the working class, don’t think it contradicts Income data.

The other two talk about general wealth inequality, which is a problem, even amongst the 1%, but doesnt relate to inc-ineq.

On aggregate, lower quintiles are doing well.

Sure, but the higher productivity wouldn’t be due to lower employment in those industries.
(Although its lower than trend)

Service industry employment is above pre-covid figures

Yes but since covid the bottom quintiles have actually been doing better than the top as a share of Income. This is even shown in the Gini data you cited.
