And they haven't even tracked down the location of the source as well as it sounds. They detected a burst, and found a fading radio source in that field of view

And they haven't even tracked down the location of the source as well as it sounds. They detected a burst, and found a fading radio source in that field of view, but there's a decent chance (<6% or <0.1%, depending on which of their estimates you prefer) that it's just coincidence.
Alas, if it's just coincidence, the rest of the (beautiful!) paper falls apart.
