It explains why Nature might have been quicker to reject another paper about room temperature superconductivity than they otherwise would have been. But yeah, it's a little misleading stuck in there like that.

The confusing part specifically is "Similarly-presented research" which doesn't say why it's similarly-presented. It sounds like looking into it that it's just "both were room temperature superconductors" but it could have also meant that "both are about LK-99", "both are from the same university" or something like that. It's ambiguous.
