At first, you might think it's just something like this (http://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlations http://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlations), but as far as I can tell, the arguments come largely from first principles physics, validated through both experiments and historical observations including both human and natural records. I don't think this is a dishonest "look these line up!" argument.
I agree that it's frustrating when lay person proponents make arguments that don't hold up, and initially thought this article was doing that, but it's really just a snapshot into what's mentioned in the Methods section, which points to ModelE2 which is a physical simulation. It's being honest, just super brief.
