Because it's a study about injecting mice with bpa which doesn't necessarily give us that much additional information about how dangerous bpa exposure actually is to humans in the real world beyond what we already knew?
But there are enough concerns about bisphenols that they should probably be phased out anyway to be safe.

Overall the link seems pretty weak, and they have to do a lot of scientific gymnastics to publish this paper.
