It's true ... BUT I worry this study will get misused by families
Yes, it's largely about how you use it. But everyone thinks they can use it well and "manage" their social media time, but many can't, especially teens. So I worry the conversation will go like this:

"Well, ok, you can have a smartphone and social media if you only use social media intentionally."

"Sure Dad."

...... a few months later

Dad: "What's happened to our daughter, she's become such a zombie."

Teens will think they can manage their social media better than they will be, and it's so addictive, it's easy to get sucked in really, REALLY fast.
