The two papers (plus others) taken together suggest that the impact is measurable (paper 2), perhaps to the tune of one or two IQ points on average per person exposed (me drawing a line from paper 1).
Granted, the latter point is my extrapolation, but there's enough of a foundation now for policy decisions to be made in advance of explicit research connecting these dots.
