I don't really understand why it isn't consistent with the study. It's entirely possible that people spend a lot more not having sex and waiting for a better partner because these huge dating pools have such a high variance. So people see that there are very favorable targets on the platform, and their perception is skewed, they start to reject the average matches, they want the best. So less sex, more hoping for the best. Am I missing something?

According to the study, it's, at most, 5 percentage points of the population over the last ~2 decades suffering from this. 5% is a lot of people, but it's hardly an overwhelming effect, is likely driven by other well studied factors like economic stress.
