Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Nothing in the original research article (which I still encourage you to read) hints at anything. It’s an academic journal article, the language is very precise.

This Nature article summarizing the work also isn’t employing dog whistles. The fact that you are interpreting “Toxic workplaces are the main reason women leave academic jobs” to be an attack on men is on you, not the author of the article.
