Not sure I get the same conclusion you do from the same article.

Worse than we thought?:

"It allows for the possibility that there is significant melting of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet," Rowley said. "Or it allows for a simple interpretation of no melting."

There is a simple interpretation of no melting.

Also, previously in the article they show that the models used to predict melting are suspect. The historical link of 'melt' being caused by CO2, may in fact be flattening caused by crust flexing.

The crust flexes in response to freasing or melting but it don't not significantly buldge without reason.
With that sentence you are either a rather prodigious 6 year old or a grammatically challenged adult.
Or a non-native English speaker?
