Yes, this DeepMind paper has been associated with an extraordinary amount of hype! This must be the third or fourth time it has been posted here, when most of the extensive grid cell literature has never been posted once; including theoretical work that explains the emergence of such cells, or that uses grids for navigation. And I don't think this is the first time that a DeepMind paper has been selective in its literature review, either...

Was the arxiv paper ever peer reviewed?

Yes, refer to the openreview link to my earlier comment on this thread.
