Yes, obviously there are details that are missing. The article doesn't have any of the letters he wrote, and refers to a very complicated code indicated by repeating words, none of which were in the article.
Even with the evidence, I'm sure it's far beyond me to assess it, but it seems insane that people are dismissing a highly trained codebreaker's extensive work because 2 specific sentences in a newspaper article cribbed from multiple letters aren't immediately obvious to the layperson.

Definitely nothing obvious to this layperson. Edit: just noticed the 3 71s in the first image, ok that's a little interesting.
