I think you're right in a sense about being alarmist because that's what this article says. They know that it isn't good for you to heat plastic so stop doing that. Also, FDA start studying the shit out of this because even if it's bad, the scientist doubts they'll change to something good because it opens themeselves up for litigation from past events. The author doesn't want this to be a "smoking isn't bad for you" situation.
