But doesn’t the application gateway provide some load balancing features?

Yes, and it will work fine (it currently support being internal) but it will be much more expensive... So, for simple load balancing, a L4 LB makes more sense.

Given Answer is correct Answer is correct. - Internal Load Balancer - Application gateway which uses WAF tier. Web Application Firewall (WAF) Provides centralized protection of your web applications from common exploits and vulnerabilities. Web applications are increasingly targeted by malicious attacks that exploit commonly known vulnerabilities. SQL injection and cross-site scripting are among the most common attacks. A WAF solution can react to a security threat faster by centrally patching a known vulnerability, instead of securing each individual web application. WAF can be deployed with Azure Application Gateway, Azure Front Door, and Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) service from Microsoft. WAF on Azure CDN is currently under public preview. WAF has features that are customized for each specific service. For more information about WAF features for each service, see the overview for each service.
