Rephrased in a kinder tone:
I appreciated you sharing that relevant link about neutron stars and magnetic fields. Since the article is discussing a star with an unusually strong magnetic field that may help explain magnetars, readers might be interested to learn more details about neutron star magnetic fields too.
To help make the connection clearer, you could consider quoting a relevant excerpt from the article like:
"Some stars, though, have much more powerful fields [... ] neutron stars have magnetic fields 1 trillion times stronger than the Sun’s."
Then your physics stack exchange link provides some great additional details on theories about the origins of neutron star magnetic fields. The accepted answer there gives a nice short overview that expands on the article's point about how the star's collapse amplifies its field.
There's always more to learn about these complex astrophysical processes! I think your link makes a great addition, especially if you frame it as following up on the article's points. Let me know if you'd like any help editing your comment to connect the dots more clearly. Just wanted to provide a friendly suggestion, since I know I also appreciate feedback on how to improve my own comments sometimes.
