People seem to be confusing this and taking it like a personal attack.

Its not saying music is pointless. Its just saying it isnt going to help you in math. And over doing it, may in fact hurt your math due to burnout.

(Sub math for whatever non enrichment activity, sub music for any enrichment activity)

That’s definitely not what the paper is saying.

People aren’t reading the paper, just the headline, is what’s happening, and projecting their personal experience onto the 1 liner conclusion.
