This is a bit of revisionist history. The way the "discovery" was announced was slightly subdued, they called it an "anomaly", and added the caveats that it could be due to some errors, but they also stated that the "deviation of the neutrino velocity from c would be a striking result pointing to new physics in the neutrino sector". So pretty much, we are not 100% sure, but if this is correct, this is revolutionary.

That's not exactly the tone of someone who asks the larger community to assist with a debugging exercise.

And the recent announcement repeats the same pattern. "This could be due to some equipment malfunction, but if not, then this is big".
