Anaconda's main advantage is that it (potentially) has more pre-packaged modules available for a variety of platforms versus vanilla Python and pip (which downloads modules from PyPI). So if you have very specific module requirements for e.g. AI/ML, that might be a benefit.

You may want to provide more details in your original question to clarify the exact steps you took to install Python 3.8 then. Otherwise, there are a number of guides available via e.g. Google on this topic.

I would agree with that recommendation. Removing Python installations haphazardly on MacOS can result in your system ceasing to function correctly. The way Anaconda operates, there is no need to remove Python 3.8 from your system. Simply install Anaconda and learn about using Python virtual environments.
