The paper shows that the ROI for college in the US is positive for many, but not all, majors and schools. It’s literally the entire point of the paper, complete with data, graphs and the rest.

Not as positive as some might think, and there are a significant number of losers, but only “a few degree programs” being positive is not supported by the data.

ROI may be positive for many programs but still only worth it for a few of them.
What difference do you imply between a positive ROI and "worth it" ?
