This certainly bends the needle on my bamboozle bullshit meter.
They sure crammed a maximum amount of specialized words in there. Words that a majority of people will not understand.
After reading just this excerpt, I instantly lost the nerve and patience to read the actual article.
If the purpose of (written) communication is to transfers ideas, then this convoluted word salad certainly miserably failed at it. But, I get the impression that the intention here is exactly the opposite, to convey absolutely nothing while pretending to be something complex and hard to understand.
99 out of a 100 (if not more), that kind of pattern indicates a intentional scam, of which there are plenty on fringes of science communities.
Not being able to follow a science paper as the result of inadequate knowledge, regarding concepts and/or jargon, is one thing. Creating bullshit sentences like these is very much another.
