This has been discussed before. I understand that it is not a new result and also not an exact result: A method for constructing an infinite sequence of approximations to the exact solution. It has been long proven that exact solutions do not exist above a certain degree.

Exactly! You got it 100% right.

> A method for constructing an infinite sequence of approximations to the exact solution.

They just rename it as a "exact" method and rename the old "radical" as inexact. In math definitions change from time to time, but in any case they didn't solve the old problem.
