the people conducting the study obviously have absolutely no idea how federation and the fediverse in general work...

How do you know that?

Study:

Mastodon = Server hoster

Mastodon = Responsible for content

Mastodon = able to moderate

Reality:

Mastodon ≠ Server hoster

Mastodon ≠ Responsible for content

Mastodon ≠ able to moderate

Where does the study suggest the Mastodon software's ability to moderate, or that it's responsible for content?

Did you read the headline? Or the article?

Did you read the actual study that this article refers to?

Going by your lack of further response, I'm going to assume you didn't, otherwise you'd have noticed that you're wrong. I recommend reading the sources of articles in the future before commenting on them.
