Most major advances don't just fall out of trees like Newton's apple. And yes, these findings may not turn out to be very relevant in the end. At least these authors don't make the common mistake of pronouncing grandiose and dramatic conclusions not even remotely supported by their data.
I was playing with a violinist the other day who had a violin that (he said) was a "composite" with a back by Guarneri. It was clearly a good instrument. Or maybe he was just a good player. Or maybe I had too much coffee and was getting too enthusiastic about everything.
I guess I should have listened for the sound of complex mineral preservatives. ;-)
