I agree, but it's not clear from the article if the paper is even wrong.
As I understand it there's robust evidence in support of the hypothesis itself (GMVH), and this paper was an attempt to model how the effect could come about.
It looks to me more like it was retracted for being distasteful to the journal editor's wife.
