That's referring to a 1948 study though. The author is just providing background and setting the stage. It's not the research that the article is actually about.

Hardly seems worth getting upset over.

Many readers on this site love to attack research by reading an article about the research or reading just the abstract, and then assuming that the researcher was slightly dumber than algae. This is just another example of that particular blend of arrogance and ignorance.
