Google and google-level companies are a world of their own and I would apply their findings bit-for-bit.
They have a custom way of doing everything, so certifications for the outside world don’t necessarily apply.
Also, unless such findings are shared in a structured manner (in the form of a research paper or something) then it feels like just a cool story, and I’d be inclined to call bs.
To add my personal anecdotal point of view, getting industry specific certifications (red hat rhcsa, for example) has made me a profoundly better professional, because I had to go over a number of topics and study them thoroughly, way over what the average tutorial covers.
