Linked research doesn't really agree. But if it did, so?
If comprehensibility is not a simple metric then who's got a magic wand to do the fancy feedback? Sounds like it'd take a human/AGI which is useless, that's why we have metrics.
Are any real programmers who produce things for the world using comprehensibility metrics or is it all the university fakers and their virtual world they have created?

If this is their 'one example' it sucks.
