Not with those limb proportions and spinal column. Look at how awkward that is.

It's only four of thirteen or so kids, and the affected ones also suffer from retardation. It sounds like something grossly wrong with their motor centers. A good reason not to marry close relatives.

To me it seems that they made some broad assumptions, but anyway. I'm curious as to how they arrived at the conclusion that those kids "reverted to quadrupedalism." I mean, it could also be that they made a forward evolutionary progress. I don't think anybody can be absolutely certain that the future environment won't favor 'quadrapeds.' Granted, it's not going to happen any time soon.
