Do you not want any non-technical summary articles like this to be written? So that only those with the training to understand a Cell journal article would be able to learn anything about the result?
Or do you prefer that no journal articles be published that rely on 2020-era NN models, because older articles based on less state-of-the-art NNs have been published already?
But I think you raise an interesting point about non-technical summary articles: what do they do and who are they for? Does the non-technical public need to know about this research? Do they gain anything vs. reading the study's actual summary? I'm not sure. I do think there isn't much for non-technical people to get from this article that would be useful. I think the best reason would be for younger people to pique their interest in the field. Though, I honestly don't know the answer.
I do think this one gives non-technical people get something useful, though. More broadly, it'll increase science understanding among the non-scientist/non-technical public, at least on this topic, and good does tend to come out of that.
