Sorry, all the statements in the study would need to be qualified like that (and most of them much more), and virtually none of them are.

I am assuming the study has taken some care to be representative. Otherwise, there's no need to talk about the findings at all.

It's not a matter of representativity. It's a matter of measuring a different thing.

The article measures shares of reasons between the people that left, but those are not correct by the share of people that left on each subgroup.

(See my edit if you haven't - I agree that the blog post is trying to claim something that the Kapor study is not saying, or at least is phrased poorly.)

I see the same sort of thing in the "study", all over the place.
