Yes this is ancient news for experts, but, IMO, most fMRI research outside of methodological research is quite practically useless at the moment because of deep measurement issues like these.

So if awareness of this increases the skepticism of papers claiming to have learned things about the brain/mind from fMRI, then I'd say it is a net plus.
