People publishing a study that is so blatantly against everything that is statistically likely should be called out. The author published an email he also - before publication - sent to the people involved. Science happens in public for a reason. The reason is that others should be able to check the results being published. Authors should therefore be very aware of the fact, that their results might come under scrutiny. If one were to publish claims that look so unlikely based on valid scientific methods they should at least address the unlikeliness of the results and provide a rationale why this is still valid, even if it looks unlikely. That didn't happen - and so they get called out. The extreme unlikeliness is what validates the claim of this being fraudulent data. Now it is on the original study`s authors to react to that public answer to their publication.
