The interior of black holes is one of the situations in which we need a theory that incorporates both gravity and quantum mechanics.
We actually do have a couple such theories and can't verify them because the situations where they differ from GR are unobservable. It's a shame (but not surprising) this research didn't find any observable differences from GR.
