The arXiv paper indicates he has no intention of submitting it to a peer-reviewed journal -- something that's becoming pretty common in some physics fields. On the contrary, I see the "yet to pass peer review" remark as a crass editorialization from the Nature journalists¹. This paper has already seen more, meaningful, peer review that most papers Nature publishes; informal review from people downloading the (free, open) paper from the arXiv, or listening to the talk at the Kavli conference.
