That kind of felt like clickbait. The widespread efficacies of multi-modal learning and retention strategies don't really debunk the notion that learning styles exist. Some students have significant discrepancies between their various processing abilities, and that absolutely affects them in school. While certain methods of teaching are likely to work better across the board for specific subjects (e.g. using maps in geography), I expect students would still experience different outcomes with those methods, depending on their learning styles.
Video from one of the most respected science explainers on YT:

"Learning Styles was a hypothesis from some random teacher that was spread without ever being tested. When it was rigourously tested, there was no evidence it was correct."

This guy:

"I fail to see how this debunks learning styles"
