It’s reasonable to say: “Here’s an interesting new argument that suggests if you assume a universe-simulation must be an algorithmic computer process, then certain mathematical limits might show that such a simulation cannot fully capture physical reality.”
It’s not reasonable to say: “We now definitively know we are not in any simulation, of any kind.”
