Actually, the article makes some far-fetched assertions which may not even correspond to reality and may not even be worth discussing at all.

But, it is reasonably hard data, and data has value, even if the interpretation is up for debate. I think if everyone had read the article, that'd be the more common theme of the discussion here: Are the conclusions valid based on the data seen, and either way, is it useful to know...is there something actionable in this data?
