I think the point is that it's not a reconstruction. It's more like recognizing which letter of a thousand-letter alphabet is shown to the human after decoding their brain waves. Still impressive, but not really as impressive as visual reconstruction.

TBH, I was not impressed up until now, but given the videos I have in mind from people trying to use brain computing interfaces to type a text, now I'm impressed.

fMRI is useless for that purpose - latency is much higher than any BCI method you might’ve seen in those videos
