I think that report is a summary of the thinking that led to the new higher count cables. In fact, those researchers work for the companies that laid those cables.

The new cables are based on the ideas outlined in that paper? spacing regen farther apart, putting fewer waves on each fiber pair so nonlinearities can be avoided, etc.

Exactly, especially where distances are super long.
