And in the paper, from the abstract,
> We demonstrate that the Faithfulness property that is assumed in much causal analysis is robustly
violated for a large class of systems...
In preliminaries,

necessarily so given the Markov property.
So probably a more accurate laymam description would be "not all causations are observable as a statistical correlation relationship".
