That claim is too strong. Your reference is one astronomical
observation that a proposed effect has not been detected.
But that does not necessarily abolish Planck time.
The impression I get is that most researchers don't even agree on what
time *is*.
Some think that a fundamental 'time' doesn't even exist.
See: <http://www.ws5.com/spacetime/>
for a good discussion with plenty of further reading references.

Alas, there is no answer, at least not for now, and maybe never.
