Late april fool's joke maybe?

After all, it says in the article that the upper arm bone they found was "humerus"!

Such a positive, evolutionary response

fish used limbs in water well before animals used them to climb up on land.

Such a positive and evolutionary interpretation. It is far more likely that they used the arms to slug other fish.
