I think it's just the scientific reporting equivalent of FUD, this is news, but it doesn't fit the long term narrative they will need to keep selling scientific reporting. Hence some editor probably stuffed those last bits in there. The fact they are reporting it all is pretty decent for modern journalism.

The tension has been there for a long time, but its only something like two years ago that the statistical errors got small enough you had to somewhat seriously consider there could be some important reason for the disagreement.
