*to scoop a team working with Anthropic, their chief competitor.

Also, they didn't have the solution. They had a lesser problem no one cared about.

My understanding is that the Euler solution was in fact a significant achievement, but it's well short of Navier-Stokes (Euler doesn't include viscosity). It's not clear whether Buckmaster and Alpöge's approach would have eventually led to a full Navier-Stokes solution or how long it would have taken.
