But a glyphosate-free version also killed 96% of exposed bees, they said, “demonstrating that the active ingredient, glyphosate, is not the cause of the mortality.”
Since they know that the surfactants are toxic to bees, this is like comparing pure arsensic to a mixture of arsenic and cyanide and concluding that cyanide is not dangerous.
Its not the glyphosate that kills bees, its the inert surfactants that are used in some brands of it.

That doesn’t prove glyphosate doesn’t kill bees. It just proves that the additives also kill bees
