This post isn't about learning NN weights with GAs, Also the reinforcement learning community does a significant amount of it's work with neural networks which are not trained using gradients. Gradient free training is a highly active research area. More like 90% of neural networks are trained with gradient descent

It's a GA without crossover applied to a single layer neural network with a linear activation

No but this post is trying to generalize on an experiment where NNs are trained with GAs which is - in my opinion - not where NN shine.
