You need a weird sort of star not observed before, where it is unclear if such a structure would be in agreement with spectroscopy data. You need planets far beyond the size of all observed planets, many on highly eccentric orbits to avoid periodic dips, where only the largest planet has an observable frequency. All that to solve... what?
The article doesn't seem to take into account all the work that has been done in the paper, like comparing transit speeds to orbital periods, Hill spheres for rings and so on. There are many constraints, ignoring half of them doesn't work.
