the results of this study can, in combination with other studies over time, potentially, lead to better treatment methods. Weather that's better assistant medication, better ways to apply treatments or a better understanding of some of the unusual treatment methods.
But what is described in the paper seems to me to be a fundamental mechanism of the brain to cope with anxiety overload. And that we can't fix, because it isn't really broken. I mean compare it to a bit far fetched example: Water spill ways. Especially on a larger scale they always come with drawbacks and you can't fix that. What you can change is stuff like how you wire up the spill way (e.g. when and which gates opens when) or e.g. how likely they need to be engaged (by upstream changing things), or how well you (as a city) cope with whatever drawbacks the specific water spill way has. For all of this properly understanding the underlying mechanics is important. And this is what the paper is about, properly understanding the mechanics so that we can provide better treatment.
