I will point out, I don't think "peer review" means repeating the test, it means more generally pointing out issues with the science, right? By that definition, sounds like that's what they're doing. That doesn't make the criticisms inherently valid, but to dismiss it as "they're free to do their own tests" because "that is how science works" seems dishonest.
Peer review usually means repeating the test and comparing results with the original paper. If peer review can't get the same results, it means that the first study was faulty or wasn't described accurately.
