I don't know, I haven't read the paper or even the article but it stands to reason that the researchers didn't take into account the common household knowledge that salt equals rust.

I haven’t as the paper or even the article

Thank you for confirming.

The common household isn’t going to see or give a shit about this article in the first place.

It’s not for the common household. It’s for people researching this. and for the companies running cloud computing platforms to save money.
