​From the Nature link​:
"Sabine Hossenfelder, an expert on quantum gravity at the Frankfurt
Institute for Advanced Studies in Germany, says that the black-hole paper
is scientific and clearly argued, but is wrong because it uses an equation
in a slightly different regime to that in which it should be applied. She
calls this a “common and understandable mistake”.

Instead of being wrong the conclusion should be seen as a reductio ad
absurdum demonstration of the incompatibility of quantum mechanics and
general relativity.  Without a quantum theory of gravity the entire field
of black hole physics is based on discretion rather than logic.
