Scientists say the darnedest things

This link

https://phys.org/news/2017-05-hunter-gatherers-farming.html?

goes to an article headlined

Why did hunter-gatherers first begin farming?


The article itself does not even address that question.

The article discusses evidence for whether the first farmers deliberately tried to increase the yield of crops.

Read it yourself.  I wouldn't make such a fuss, but this happens in science popularizations all the time.
