The article you linked says precisely that Kruskal–Szekeres coordinates are not singular at the event horizon. The event horizon is completely regular: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_singularity#Curv...

You can choose stupid coordinates that introduce a singularity wherever you like, in GM or in classical mechanics just the same. The coordinates have no meaning.
