I didn’t read the underlying study but based on the summary it looks like there was a statistically significant difference in overall fertility. It still never came close to replacement rate and tells us nothing about the sign on the correlation between a woman’s educational and career achievements and her fertility.
There’s arguments on all sides about whether sub replacement fertility among woman with successful white collar careers is or isn’t a problem. But what I haven’t seen is any country that’s managed to reverse it. So we don’t in fact know if it is possible.
