JSONField is specific to PostgreSQL [1]. If you're working in Django and are bound to some other vendor, RDMS-agnostic solution is handy.

JSONField is not always available and is not equivalent to EAV.

That's an overgeneralisation. EAV is used in certain situations to solve one specific problem. It's not general-purpose and should not be used as one.
