I've seen this point brought up many times over the years and yet research in this direction seems to continue, so I think there must be more to it. I asked chatgpt about it, and it claims that the controversial paper was influential but it was more about a certain sub-hypothesis that got called into question after that rather than the entire thing.

Now I know that bringing up chatgpt is frowned upon here but I thought I should make an exception for this case as its not so easy for me to answer otherwise.
