but likely just a useful idiot for the people in charge

that's little bit too harsh. the authors of the article write general news, they do not specialize in technology, and it is pretty clear none of them is gamer (i suspect that telegraph correspondent to united states doesn't have much free time to waste on gaming 😂).

so while that paragraph is stupid to the degree where it is bordering on funny, i am not looking for malicious intent behind it.
