This write up not only oversimplifies, but it totally neglects one of the more interesting motivations of the original paper [1]. The authors are probing whether or not quantum mechanics is consistent with a single-world interpretation---that is, whether or not there is a unique reality. Formally, the claim is that there is no physical theory that is (1) consistent with QM, (2) consistent with a single-world interpretation, and (3) logically self-consistent. 1. https://arxiv.org/pdf/1604.07422.pdf
