The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
And I hope I was able to illustrate for you that endurance isn't just one thing. It's not just the ability to go for long bouts of exercise of different kinds, that there's also this mental component because of the way that neurons work.

I hope I was able to illustrate for you that endurance isn't just one thing. It's not just the ability to go for long bouts of exercise of different kinds. There's also this mental component because of the way that neurons work, and also that there are these different forms of endurance, of muscular endurance, where you're going to fail because of the muscles and muscle energy utilization, and the nerves that innervate those muscles locally, not because of a failure to bring in oxygen or blood. Whereas long-duration effort, it's going to be more about being below your VO2 max and your ability to be efficient for long bouts of more than 12 minutes of exercise.
