There's like 1 sentence quoting the Chinese space agency and the 90% of the article is by the author.

If you have issues with the content of the article, its really on the author.

I have issues with the author, yes, but I also genuinely have some issues with the way NAOC (seem to) approach this, however hard that apparently is to believe.
