True, but this story has nothing to do with Engima.

Not entirely. The article does make some inaccurate claims about the cracking of the Enigma.

The story about Bill Tutte has nothing to do with Enigma. Yes, Bill Tutte worked at Bletchley, and so did the code breakers who worked on Enigma.

But Tutte worked on Lorenz, and this story is about Tutte and his work, and hence this story is not about Enigma.
