For sure, no worries. I had the same questions as you when reading it. Fwiw, the paper is really kind of sloppy. I think it's maybe a case of poor students not wanting to pay for GPT-4? Maybe they'll clean it up and respond to some of the criticisms when it comes out of draft, but it doesn't seem like very rigorous scholarship to me.
Yeah I think you're right on about the students not being able to afford GPT4 (I don't blame them. The API version gets expensive quick). I agree though that it doesn't seem super well put together.
