Like the article says, it's protection from harvest-now-break-later.
Apple users and communications are today a state-secret affair as shown by the impact of NSO/Pegasus.
So even if Google,IBM,et al _might_ have approached feasibility in the open there is still a significant risk in state-level adversaries having poured enough funding to still be ahead, plus they will benefit from all open research in the hidden with extra funding to take more leaps.
So no, it's not premature if there is hidden or open leaps just 10 years in the future.
