The article is not conclusive. There are always going to be outliers in a case by case basis.
From the same article:
“Still, after decades of treating, showing, and judging countless breeds, AKC’s chief veterinary officer, Jerry Klein, disputes the study’s conclusions. “I think most dogs conform to the personality standard of their breed,” he says.”
People:
Bloodhounds are renowned for their sense of smell due to intentional selective-breeding.
Greyhounds are renowned for their incredible speed and ability due to intentional selective-breeding.
Border Collies are renowned as the premium choice of herding dog due to intentional selective-breeding.
The exact same people:
Intentional slective-breeding has ZERO impact on pitbulls!!!
Sure, dude.
AlwaysNowNeverNotMeAwww, adorable, you think we're talking about their personalities and not their bone crushing jaws.
Awww, adorable, you think other dogs have safe jaws and aren’t an inherently unsafe animal to have around.
Lol I owned a German Shepard. I'm fine with banning all those breeds.
But pitbulls would be The reason it had to happen.
Almost all dogs have that ability. That’s what their molars are for… That’s a trait they retain from their wolf ancestors.
Small breed dogs already outnumber and outlive large breeds with a smaller environmental footprint.
But sure

Where are you getting these statistics?
Having been a dog owner for all my life, small breed dogs are also way more likely to have a bad temperament and bite people.
And how often do they fatally maul?
If I accidentally shoot you with an airsoft bb, it’ll hurt, and that’s bad.
If I accidentally shoot you with a 9mm it’ll kill.
Except you don’t “accidentally shoot” someone. That’s negligence.
Keep going with that one. What’s it called when you accidentally let your dog maul someone?
Also negligence.
So…Pitbulls were bred for a purpose, just like all other working dog breeds were.
That doesn’t mean they’re all inherently bad dogs, but it does mean they carry significantly more risk then other breeds.
Unless you actually believe that they’re the only working breed not created with by selectively breeding for specific hereditary behavioral characteristics?
