If the results were "does not support LK-99 as a room-temperature superconductor", that would be a negative result. If they hadn't done the work at all and there were no results, that would be a neutral result. So this is a positive result. It doesn't have to be a sweeping confirmation to still be positive.
Running the same simulation isn't a positive result, it's running the same simulation. Not running tests at all isn't neutral, it's nothing. I'm not saying this needs to be some sweeping confirmation, I'm saying that when you read these reports they aren't the results that headlines would have you believe.
