I think dr. Tour did this exact same talk at least half a dozen times, always wanting for somebody to correct his erroneous statements, if any.
His basic complaint is that the public is being deceived into believing that there is progress in the field of origin of life, whereas in fact, there’s hardly any progress at all. So in this context his complaint about the Nature article is exactly the thing he was looking for. He did not erroneously thought that it was part of the body of science.
