This paper has a lot of back and forth. Another commenter posted a rebuttal.
Don't spread it around. It's a complete fraud of a paper for all we know. Just the fact that it has convincing rebuttals is enough to make you consider it irrelevant.
It's not a fraud. Science isn't black and white. Discussing things is a good thing. It's still peer reviewed and not retracted in a decent journal. Not everyone dismisses it. The authors have responded to some of the criticisms by publishing additional information in the linked "correction" (functions like an attachment added later). Science is a conversation.
No, you're thinking of philosophy. Philosophy is a discussion. Science is a process. Just the fact that they are being accused of being misleading and outright falsyfyiing evidence is enough to simply ignore their purported results until they can produce a paper that fixes all those problems.
It's not a discussion whether we can agree on something. The evidence should do the only talking.
