I get that this is in nature, but isn't fitting to the data with some phenomenological model what every (:?astro)?particle physicist does? As an outsider, I can't tell whether this is significant phenomenological explanation or not.

We now have increased confidence in those models in accordance with this new observation, and decreased confidence in those models that are at odds with the observation. In particular, this new observation constrains the nature of dark matter (lower particle mass than expected and "highly non-relativistic").
