Actually, the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle is best understood as a mathematical limit: you cannot measure the position of a particle and the momentum to a degree where the product of the uncertainty of the particle's position and the uncertainty of the particle's momentum is less than Planck's constant. So if the effect you are looking for is greater than Planck's constant, the equation does not apply. But I'm not sure how this equation relates to the article. Dealing with general non-mathematical restatements of fundamentally mathematical equations always leads to trouble...
