I heard back from the author of the article.

Thanks for your letter. The data did suggets that some women (about 20 
percent)
who failed to breastfeed felt they could have suceeded with professional 
help.
Most women, however, did not feel this, or decided for a particular reason 
that
it was best for them to formula feed. My conclusion is that while women do 
need
proper support - not simply to be told they should breastfeed - use of 
formula
neds to be accepted as a legitimate aspect of infant feeding. Until it is,
women will feel they way our study identified.

Best wishes
Dr Ellie Lee

I don't think she gets it.
