The traditional formulations of gravity and quantum mechanics are fundamentally incompatible in extreme conditions. Einstein was baffled by quantum mechanics. More then one scientist has eaten their hat trying to get a unified theory, which resulted in string theory among others.
Just the implication that we are close to be able to properly do measurements on quantum scale really is a major step forward to a real quantum gravity theory because:
For once its not clickbait though.
