This is supposed to be a science sub! Mistakes like this shouldn't be viewed as acceptable...especially when it occurs in a research paper! Or, have scientific standards actually fallen this low?

This didn't occur in a children's book. This mistake was made in a science research paper!

Come on, mods! You gonna let this slide?

It's not a research paper, it's a summary article on the university website. What's more, and someone Dutch can correct me, I believe the distinction doesn't exist there in the same way, it's all 'apen', so it's more an error in translation than anything else.
