I will believe this when I can actually measure scenes from Gaussians accurately (I have tried multiple papers worth of experiments with dismal results). No one in the reality capture industry uses splats for anything else other than visualization of water and sky heavy scenes because this is where a Gaussian splat actually renders in a nice way. I look forward to the advancements that Nerf and GS but for now there is no foundational reason why they can extrapolate any more data than COLMAP or GLOMAP when the input data is the major factor in defining scene details.
