I would presume the birds don’t eat them because they’re bitter .. just as the research showed.

Birds like sweet berries.

According to the Wikipedia article, birds can't tell they are bitter: "The fruits are eaten by birds (birds do not taste astringency and feed on them readily), which then disperse the seeds in their droppings."
