This is something that some people has suspected in the field for a long time. I had terrible discussions as we made some software in the field and met people there.
The pure Darwinism evolution dogma has extended a lot because it was an easy answer, like the world being created in 6 days. But it was incomplete in lots of ways.
For example, considering all DNA we did not understand as "junk" DNA was incredible arrogant, when it seems like it is in fact software or other kinds of data.
You have comments on me on hacker news talking about that like 5 years ago or something.
I seem to remember getting the impression that many "actual biologists" did refer to it and often think of it as "junk" DNA in the '80s. But that's just an impression since I never bought into the concept it was "junk" and to the extent I paid attention, it was to those trying to find why it was there and what it did.

Great job what those researchers have done.
