The article states that between 6-7 years ago somebody gathered 118 people of varying competence with irons sights and had them shoot targets at known distances to ascertain a baseline of speed/accuracy.
They then (with no training) had them shoot a comparable pistol equipped with a red dot and noted that none of them improved.

Well, that is the point of the study.
Adding a carry optic to a handgun is almost certainly not going to provide an instantaneous benefit to the shooter. That benefit, if it ever to be realized, must come with training. If the shooter doesn't train with it, it m,ay never benefit him.
People that ask if a carry optic will benefit them, the only correct answer is "maybe."
